St. John Bosco, St. Joseph students performing joint production of 'Into the Woods'

BELLFLOWER -- Theater students from St. John Bosco and St. Joseph high schools will perform their fall musical, "Into the Woods," in November. 

Created by James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim, the story follows a baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. 

When the baker and his wife learn they cannot have a child due to a witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone's wishes are granted but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them with disastrous results. 

Tickets to performances are $15 and can be purchased online at bosco.org or at the door. All performances are in the St. John Bosco theater.
