Oak Grove Theater Presents Into the Woods Jr.

After many months of dedicated rehearsals and hard work from the Oak Grove Theater Team, student cast and crew members, and a group of generous parent volunteers, the curtain rose on four spellbinding performances of Into the Woods, Jr.

Our all-school ensemble brought this complex, witty, and whimsical musical to life, with nearly 1,000 audience members journeying deep into the fairy tale forest with them. From Cinderella’s slipper to the Jack’s magic beans, audiences were captivated by the students’ ability to balance Sondheim’s challenging music with rich storytelling and much humor.

We are grateful to The Thacher School for once again welcoming Oak Grove into their beautiful Milligan Theater space. Bravo to all involved for a bold and beautiful adventure Into the Woods!

It is from the small things of everyday life at Oak Grove, living with the people and the philosophy the school is so closely tied to. It can be how everyone is willing to listen to what you have to say and to live through the better and the worse of life with you; it can be feeling welcomed by everyone with open arms regardless of who you are and where you are from; it can also be a trip to India where you get to see the different lives people live in this world, just to name a few.
