Love It or Hate It – Can a Musical Be Lovable? On Stephen Sondheim’s Musical Into the Woods

Summary/Abstract: It so happened that for the end-of-year exam performance with students from the Kolozsvár University of Theatre and Film, the preparatory teachers chose a shortened version of Stephen Sondheim’s (1930-2021) musical Into the Woods, adapted for young people. As a voice coach and accompanist, I felt it was important to establish a deeper friendship with this previously unfamiliar work. Therefore, I first watched the Broadway film adaptation of the piece, then studied the libretto and the music associated with the lyrics. Simultaneously, I began to research Sondheim’s musical and lyric-writing activities.
