INTO THE WOODS w/ Kevin Zak

from Broadway Breakdown · host Matt Koplik

"And I know things now..."Before SHREK, there was INTO THE WOODS! That's right, we've come to the classic fairy tale Sondheim musical that every high school in America has performed at one point in the last 30 years. But even though it's Sondheim's most produced musical, is it his best? Matt and guest Kevin Zak (CLINTON, WAITRESS) dive into all things witches, giants and beans and discuss the show's road to Broadway, its movie version and why the original production ruined everything.
