THE talent and professionalism of Walmsley Church AODS shines through as they take you on a magical journey Into The Woods.
The musical, based on James Lapine's book of the same name, with music and lyrics written by Stephen Sondheim, opened to a full house.
It follows the story of the Baker and his wife as they seek to have a child. On their journey they encounter various fairytale characters who either help or hinder them in their quest.
Their second show of the year seemlessly combines the classic stories of Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk and Rapunzel, setting the scene in each, before the characters head into the woods -- where the real story begins.
The characters are truly brought to life through the energetic enthusiasm of the cast, not to mention the powerful singing.
The detailed use of costume, varied scenery, lighting and even the odd special effect help to create the atmospheric setting from which rises a unique and enchanting performance.
The show, held at Walmsley Church Parish Hall, runs until Saturday. Tickets cost £6 from 01204 303835. Teri Jones
