Sondheim Influence with Gail Leondar-Wright

Into the Woods: “A Playwright in Song”

Using Into the Woods as a focus, we’ll take a look at how Sondheim functions as “A Playwright in Song” using both lyrics and music to tell stories.

We’ll spend some time with Sondheim’s delightful wordplay to see how it serves not only character and plot, but also helps articulate the theme of the musical.
