Stephen Sondheim’s classic Into the Woods, now at the Playhouse Square’s Hanna Theater, offers a blissful, exuberant, dangerous — and deliciously musical — expedition into the forest.

As director Victoria Bussert pointed out in the program notes, “Be careful what you wish for, you may get it.” And that’s what Into the Woods’ two full acts are all about. It’s an enchanting production shining with exceptional performances.
