Ground breaking theatre company Fiasco will bring their reinvention of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Into The Woods to the Menier Chocolate Factory this summer.

The production uses ten actors – from the original US cast – and multiple musical instruments to reimagine the fairytale classic and received the 2015 Lucille Lortel Award for Best Revival.

The show will be directed by Noah Brody and Ben Steinfeld, with musical supervision from Matt Castle, choreography by Lisa Shriver and design by Derek McLane.

The Tony Award-winning musical features classic songs including "Children Will Listen" and "No One Is Alone", and was recently made into a Disney feature film starring Meryl Streep, James Corden and Johnny Depp.

Into the Woods will run at the Menier Chocolate Factory from 12 July – 17 September.
