"Perfectly cast actors … a cast richer in talent than Midas was in gold."

"The historic Hollywood Bowl venue and a stellar cast have made for a memorable staging of Into the Woods that boasts just as much substance as it does spectacle."

"Both Skylar Astin as the Baker and the delightful Sutton Foster as the Baker’s Wife have voices that are perfectly suited to Sondheim and had great chemistry together. Sutton’s steamy and hilarious scene with Cheyenne Jackson’s prince is one of the evening’s highlights."

""Before the production even starts, the acting roster of this talent-spilling Into The Woods almost reads like a dream cast for a bucket-list-baiting Broadway revival that all of us would clamor to experience."

"[Patina] Miller brings pathos to the heartrending aria 'Stay With Me,' then blossoms into her younger self in the second act, dazzling and building to a beguiling rendition of 'Last Midnight.'"

"[Cinderella’s Prince, Cheyenne] Jackson and Chris Carmack, who made a dashingly hammy impression as Rapunzel’s Prince, delighted in their frolicsome rendition of 'Agony.' This cheeky wail of two royal bachelors unaccustomed to any delay in their romantic satisfaction, returned throughout the show like a jaunty breeze."
