Gulfshore Playhouse
Into the Woods is a musical that brings together classic fairy-tale characters and explores what happens after their wishes come true. The scenic design focuses on the idea that getting what you want does not always lead to happiness. The visual world combines a fairy-tale storybook aesthetic with a contemporary look, using wooden slats in natural tones, layered shapes, and forms inspired by topiary trees. A scrim printed with storybook pages reinforces the narrative structure of the piece. The goal is to create a space that feels familiar yet abstract, inviting the audience to reflect on the deeper complexities beneath these well-known stories.
