~ Director) Note

Once upon a time This phrase that traditionally begins all fairy tales is the opening line of Into the Woods delivered to the audience by a narrator If we take a moment to think about the phrase we see that it introduces the archetypal nature of the story to come this happened once in an undefined time and place meaning that it could happen in any time and in any place Fairy tales speak to an audience on a bashysic universal level representing not specific people or places or times but general types ofexperiences and situshyations that are commonly relevant to all human beings

The concept of going into the woods is a metaphor for the necesshysary journey into the world that we all encounter The experience ofleavshying home the place where things are secure stable safe and known and traveling into the woods the ever-changing environment that isnt familiar or safe is relevant to every person who has learned to make the distinction between home and world As we grow we are comshypelled for various reasons to venture beyond the borders of our known world and to explore new territory We aim to go into the woods and out of the woods and home before dark but it often isnt so simple and we must learn how to function in a world that will always present chalshylenges

In my life Ive been extraordinarily blessed to have teachers and friends who have helped me progress in the woods It is impossible to express my

gratitude to these individuals in a few words in a Directors Note but I hope that my work with this project indicates that I have emshybraced the values that they have instilled in me Debbie Duncan Ellen BilderseeJeannine Mitchell and Dean Hentz I cannot thank you enough for teaching me how to

be a student and ateacher how to settle for no less than the best that I can do and how to inspire others to do the same You are testament to the fact that children do listen and though I am no longer litershyally your student I continue to be inspired by what you have taught me Grandma and Grandpa your constant interest in my life has provided me with opportunities that few are fortunate to have and I could not be more grateful to you for all that you have given and continue to give me And last but most importantly Mom and Remy there are no words Our relationship is a blessing and it is because I am so safe and at peace at home that I feel able to enshycounter the world with strength confidence and grace Every child should be so lucky

To the cast you are the most talented and intelligent group of performers Ive ever known and it has been an absolute joy working with you To my team I have nevshyer worked with a more patient enshythusiastic and supportive producshytion team Finally to the audience theater is impossible without you Thank you for journeying with us 19

~ Director) Note

Once upon a time This phrase that traditionally begins all fairy tales is the opening line of Into the Woods delivered to the audience by a narrator If we take a moment to think about the phrase we see that it introduces the archetypal nature of the story to come this happened once in an undefined time and place meaning that it could happen in any time and in any place Fairy tales speak to an audience on a bashysic universal level representing not specific people or places or times but general types ofexperiences and situshyations that are commonly relevant to all human beings

The concept of going into the woods is a metaphor for the necesshysary journey into the world that we all encounter The experience ofleavshying home the place where things are secure stable safe and known and traveling into the woods the ever-changing environment that isnt familiar or safe is relevant to every person who has learned to make the distinction between home and world As we grow we are comshypelled for various reasons to venture beyond the borders of our known world and to explore new territory We aim to go into the woods and out of the woods and home before dark but it often isnt so simple and we must learn how to function in a world that will always present chalshylenges

In my life Ive been extraordinarily blessed to have teachers and friends who have helped me progress in the woods It is impossible to express my

gratitude to these individuals in a few words in a Directors Note but I hope that my work with this project indicates that I have emshybraced the values that they have instilled in me Debbie Duncan Ellen BilderseeJeannine Mitchell and Dean Hentz I cannot thank you enough for teaching me how to

be a student and ateacher how to settle for no less than the best that I can do and how to inspire others to do the same You are testament to the fact that children do listen and though I am no longer litershyally your student I continue to be inspired by what you have taught me Grandma and Grandpa your constant interest in my life has provided me with opportunities that few are fortunate to have and I could not be more grateful to you for all that you have given and continue to give me And last but most importantly Mom and Remy there are no words Our relationship is a blessing and it is because I am so safe and at peace at home that I feel able to enshycounter the world with strength confidence and grace Every child should be so lucky

To the cast you are the most talented and intelligent group of performers Ive ever known and it has been an absolute joy working with you To my team I have nevshyer worked with a more patient enshythusiastic and supportive producshytion team Finally to the audience theater is impossible without you Thank you for journeying with us 19
