  • What the hell does Sutton Foster have to do with anything? She wasn't even in "Into the Woods"

  • Go ahead and do Send in the Clowns...good baritone range...and well known. Break a leg

  • Does anyone know a good audition song for this show for a higher range Baritone? I've been asking on any song from this show I can Find. I've never done a musical audition before, and my school is doing this show for our spring musical. Any help is welcome!

  • Not everyone is a Broadway person. Heaven forbid if this continues like the Evita fan boards. We are all entitled to our opinions. I know that some people would crucify me for some of my opinions. Some people do not know modern Broadway. Who cares? We all haven't always known who the greats are. We had to learn the beauty of musicals and the best part was people not getting angry about our ignorance.

  • Having seen Sutton Foster perform in Thoroughly Modern Millie, I can attest that yes, she is great. But Bernadette Peters is also great. It is not a war of who is better. Appreciate both for their talent and just enjoy the show.

  • Sounds so much better when your really there...

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAH PEOPLE THINK SUTTON FOSTER IS BETTER THAN BERNADETTE PETERS? Maybe you can validate that point in twenty years but it's highly doubtful that you'll have reason then..

  • My schools doing this for our musical. I feel really damn lucky.

  • @BBCamerican123 We did this as our musical at the beginning of the year because we do our musical in the fall. :) I was the witch, and it was so much fun! I hope all goes well for you!

  • HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW WHO SUTTON FOSTER IS? @Msbroadway4eva

  • Who is Sutton Foster?

  • @Msbroadway4eva check out the comment right below, dear. ;)

  • @Msbroadway4eva YOU DONT KNOW WHO SUTTON FOSTER IS?!?!

  • Who is heck is Suttin Foster and should I even ask?

  • @Busterseyes She is a famous Broadway actress. She is not in Into the Woods or this video, but she was in things like Shrek the musical (Fiona) and she is currently in this show called Anything Goes. She's pretty talented. I personally don't like her, but try Google-ing her. :)

  • @GlindyUpland "In this show called 'Anything Goes'"? Do you know that "Anything Goes" is one of the most popular and tremendous Cole Porter musicals ever? Or was that a function of the way you phrased that statement?

  • @amarantaviera Oh, no, I am well aware of the success of this show. I have been a Broadway fan since I was 10, after all! I wasn't sure if Busterseyes knew the show. I didn't want to make them feel alienated if they didn't know what it was. :)

  • @Busterseyes A wonderful singer! =)

  • I don't know why, but this makes me cry. I'm so glad I found this musical.

  • Love her but jeeze

  • My Dad knows Johanna Gleason, so I have to love her. Her voice is amazing.

  • One more thing about Suttin Foster...

  • @BPetersWins I have the right to MY opinion! Stop flagging my comment. You Bernadette Peters minions need to chill. Sutton Foster is the queen of Broadway!

  • @Walt1896TheClone Sutton Foster is incredible, indeed. Incredibly overrated, ha ha ha! Bernadette Peters is a legend, what is Sutton Foster?

  • The woods is the greatest allegory ever! Seriously. And "sometimes people leave you halfway through the wood. Do not let it grieve you, no one leaves for good" helped me out a lot with my current situation.

  • if i have 3 daughters, i am naming them Idina, Bernadette, and Kristen. my 3 favorite female broadway performers.

  • my favorite musical. Bernadette Peters is A-Mazing

  • Comment removed

  • I love how this play is all about the journey of life, the woods being life. You have to take the adventure but be sure to take heed in your choices and decisions

  • The chord on the word "you" right before the witch sings "Careful the tale you tell, that is the spell" is one of my favorite musical moments in this entire score. The voicing is perfect, and the chord has the perfect feeling for this scene. Plus this original cast has one of the richest and pure blends I have ever heard.

  • Im going to be in this play!! I am Florinda, I have so much gun being a bitch!

  • I liked how you had the words scrolling in at the beginning, and then all of a sudden,

    (AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHHHHHHHHHaHHH­HHHHHHH)

    Love it!

  • Why do I not own this movie?!?!?!?! hahaha Bernadette is definitely wonderful in this play. She owned it! (but, then again, when doesn't she?) Now, to Ebay to locate this!

  • Steven Sondheim is a absolute genius. Ever since I played Cinderella in the junior version, Into the Woods has been one of my favorite plays. Children will Listen is probably my favorite song :)

  • For some reason , Bernadette stood out to me the most. (: as if she needs a solo to do that. :D iloveeeeeheer -333

  • did the bakers wife die?

    

  • @ClarissaRissapissa Yes. :(

  • @crazyrandom3 :( awwwwwwwww! she was my favorite! :(

  • @ClarissaRissapissa She cheated on her huband and got crushed by a tree, she had it coming.

  • We just finished up our school production of this about a month ago. I was the narrator/mysterious man, and it was definatly the highlight of my entire school year.

  • @DJsaxby16 I have a question for you. How did you change costumes so fast?! I'm not sure if you did it the same way as the narrator in this show did, but HOW?!

  • @BehindTheProscenium Well the first thing was the costume itself was a zipper in the back jumpsuit. It hung in the right wing of the stage and when i went to put it on i took off my jacket and shoes (it fit over my suit) and our Rupenzels prince and some of the crew helped my slide it on while i also but my headgear, which consisted of a hat wig and beard which was all pinned together. Onc]ce i did it it wasnt that hard.

  • I played Jack in our schools production and I must say, listening to this song after a long time performing it raises the hairs on my body, such an honour to perform in this play!

  • I played Jack in our schools production and I must say, listening to this song after a long time singing it raises the hairs on my spine

  • I feel bad because when i hear this song i immidiately think of Land Before Time...

  • i was sad when the backer wife die but she shout have cheated on her husband with the prince

  • I have some things to say. 1. 3:30-3:46 amazing and 2.13 people have been into the woods

  • I had the pleasure of portraying the Witch last spring and even as I sang this song, I cried. The finale always gives me the chills. It is beautiful <3

  • bernadette .... peters ... -3 ... makes my day (: i will watch this movie 0_o

  • I just watched this whole show (the movie version shown above), and it was amazing. At the beginning, I was doubled over laughing, but by the end, I was trying not cry my eyes out! I'd really like to see this live...

  • My dream role - the Witch.

    I have no idea why, my only hope is that some day I'll be the Witch in the broadway production. I was cast for a school production but I moved right after, and it was Jr. anyway. I did this play for a Drama project.

    This is my dream. /sigh/

  • Thank you for posting the finale of "Into the Woods" :)

  • One of the best finales of any Broadway musical I've ever seen (and I've seen A LOT). I love how you put in the cut scenes from the read of the musical.... Beautifully done!!

  • shivers down my spine i havent listened in years :)

  • Ahhh memories. We did this play in middle school. *tear*

  • i love this song we needed to see it in my class and i fell in love in love with song

  • this is such a wonderful production! My acting academy is doing it and at the very end the narrator (Back fro m the dead i suppose) claps his hand over cinderella's mouth and drags her offstage...

  • her voice is so beautiful.

  • I wish I could click a "love" button because "like" cannot express the amazing-ness of Bernadette Peters and Stephen Sondheim and Into the Woods (AND this cast which is by far the best cast to EVER perform Into The Woods!!)

    ^_^

    *happy-ness*

  • chills, excitement, etc. from this amazingness!! OH MY GOODNESS this is amazing.. i was in this when i was in 5th grade, and i still love these songs!

  • i love this part! i said awww the first time i saw it when he said: alone. :'( i still do.

  • this is awesome

  • Bernadette Peters in one word... INCREDABLE!

  • chills + goosebumps!!!! this is amazing!

  • What year was this made?

  • @BlahMonster13 Into the Woods? Um, the 'movie' was released in 1991 and the musical opened on Broadway in 1987 which means it started original workshops and what not a few years prior... The video, as in the info, was made about 3 or 4 years ago. :)

  • @GlindyUpland no 4 years ago

  • good job with the video, great song selection (and was there ever a cast as good as this? Bernadette and Joanna Gleason!)

  • I love bernadette Peters' high note in the beginnig :)

  • i love this song

  • this video makes it more emotional then just watching the song straight up.

  • LOVE this song!

  • So, so beautiful. Fresh and clever and beautiful !

  • 3:31 onward always gives me chills. absolutely beautiful

  • I just got cast as Jack! I'm so excited; this song always gives me goosebumps and I know it'll be hard singing it on closing night.

  • I'm auditioning for this musical in our high school tomorrow! And I'm singing the Witch's line for the audition :)

  • If they had just not gone into the woods! lol

  • Wonderful ! Thank you for putting this together and sharing.

    One of my favorite Sondhwim shows! So many levels to it, don't you think?

  • i was cinderella's prince when my high school did this show a few years ago... best experience of my life!

  • Normally, I don't like fanvids. But this was beautifully done!

  • This brings a tear to my eye so badly. Nothing but goosebumps.

  • This cast is amazing and I think Bernadetta Peters is my favorite out of the cast. She made an awesome witch.

  • lol, Bernadette looks confused at 4:08 i love her <3

  • i was casted Rapunzle and im also the youngest person on cast I'm 14 ^^

  • I was just casted as thw whitch.

  • im cinderella AND the witch for some parts b cuz i got that understudy part! OI!!!!! IT IS HARD BUT FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I was Jack. SO much fun! :D Guess this is goodbye was probably the most fun, yet shortest song i've ever sang xD

  • dear Bernadette Peters, you're effing stunning, in every sense of the word.

    that is all.

  • <3 for (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) :P

  • this is at my school! (:

  • @SprintCarMan15w they did it at my school a few years ago! and it was really good! i hope yours is good too.

  • @SprintCarMan15w bullshit

  • Its cute how cinderella and her prince charming got married in real life after the play. :3

  • i saw this cast on Bdwy, what an amazing, multi-faceted play. This is what theater is supposed to be. Thank you for this.

  • It always makes me sad that most of the comments on Into the Woods videos are from people who have been in it. It was the first show I ever saw, it's my favorite show period, and the Baker and Jack are dream roles, but I've never gotten the chance to be in it. Or any other Sondheim, as a matter of fact.

    I would trade my experiences in Les Mis, JCS, Ragtime, and The Diviners for one chance to be in this incredible show. :(

  • My high school did this it was AWESOME, i did tech for it there was so much to do

  • I think this is awesome!! good job!

  • This is such a beautiful song, to one of my most favorite Musicals, Its the perfect way to end the show :D I always loved how the line in the 'into the woods' part turns from ' The way is clear and the light is good' to 'the way is dark and the light is dim' it strengthens the theme so much =)

  • so his wife died?

  • @ithinkimkari yup

  • @mysterious1961 but my comment focuses on the uploader's work and not on the song...

  • nice one... but I think you should chose better font style on the opening words...

  • @octavine Thanks. I think so too, but my computer had a very limmited font selection. :/

  • @GlindyUpland try U-lead Studio Professional... it has many font selections, and other options for your videos... good Luck!

  • On this the third anniversary of said book, allow me to say: Most. Deathly Hallows. Song. Ever.

  • @Tharkun Huh???

  • @EtErNiTy253 I don't know if you've read Deathly Hallows, but "woods" as symbolic of travails is a pretty big component of that book, twice over, and all the trips to the Forbidden Forest in the previous books don't hurt. The "children will listen" part is a decent summation of the entire series, The baby could be interpreted as Teddy, "the greater good" is in there, and the verse that begins "the way is dark" is a perfect encapsulation of the theme. It just sums up Deathly Hallows so nicely.

  • This part makes me want to cry but it's sooo sweet! I loved this musical, but it made me cry!!! Beautiful video!

  • I wish this was on broadway. I would so go see it.

  • this was very emotional 4 me haha it was amazing!

  • well done

  • i did this musical in school it was so hard. the music was torture but once we got it was totally worth it

  • 3:57 is such a cute moment between bernadette and joanna :)

  • the witch is the best character

  • @KanaraMac She's the reason I watched Into The Woods in the first place.

  • 0:37

  • Nicely done. You should apply for editor if they make a big screen version.

  • @ParsonNathaniel

    Thanks so much. :)

  • "I wish...!"

    THE most awkward two notes in all of musical theatre.

    Lol, but the play is still very captivating nonetheless.

    I play the wolf in my production, and I think I'm having too much fun with it. Lol

  • I love this musical! Wish I had it on dvd...

    thank you so much for putting this up

  • @ShotasSnake If you have netflix, you can watch it online as many times as you want on the netflix website.

  • @blyan85 I don't have netflix. But Thanks :) I'll keep it in mind.

  • i just did this show. i was sleeping beauty. it wasn't a big part, but my directors added me into ever after and the two agonies. i just want to say, it was THE most fun show i ever did. i still have one more year at my high school, so it wasn't my last show. but i just LOVE into the woods and i loved the cast. i cried so much when it was over i'm going to miss it so much. it's such a great show

  • Lol, love the "AAAH!!" subtitle. Great video, awesome editing! And perfect timing when the two princes sit down at the same time as the drum beat at the end! Hilarious.

  • This songs is the reason i have not given up on humanity

  • lol "AHHHHAHHHAAHHHHH!" love that subtitle

  • i wish my school would

  • I'm doing this show right now! I'm jacks mother! :D

  • My high school is doing it this year, and I'm the wolf/prince

  • @PhilipTyler2010

    Congrats, I'm the same characters in a performance at the end of March! The Wolf and Cinderella's Prince are the most fun parts to play. :P

  • omg i did this play 2 years ago in 8th grade and i was the baker! aww memories

  • My school is doing this for our musical, and I soooo regret not auditioning. But everyone in the cast has a part PERFECT for them. It's going to be amazing.

  • I'm playing Little Red in our school's production...I personally love "No One is Alone." It's just so touching and emotional. I love those moments in musicals :)

  • i Look forward to trying to get into a production for this in the future... i hope to be Jack

  • @LovelyStrangeLife I sure hope that your school left certain "details" off of the wolf. XP

  • i love this musical!! my high school choir performed it last year (i was rapunzel), and on the last performance the tech crew let the fog machines go full blast, which set off the fire alarm lol!!

  • nice well put together

  • oops i mean 3:30

  • 3:20 ftw

  • I didnt appreciate the fact that I was in this musical.. until it finished:(

  • That happens...haha tell yourself how lucky you are (this happene tome with Seussical) and cherish the memories!

  • I agree Filipe, I miss Into the Woods but Grease is going to be amazing!

  • this was very well done. :D  beautifly seamless. :D i would like more. :D

  • Wow! Fantastic job on the video! It's really nice. :] And my school's just began rehearsals for this last week, I'm Lucinda, and I'm so excited already! It's quickly becoming one of my favorite shows.

  • i have the oringinal play[this one] on my combuter
