Here’s to everyone who wanted an Into the Woods server! I know this is late and whatnot but I finally set it all up and got it done!

I speak the truth.

it’s very easy to tell the good satires and pastiches from the bad ones because the bad ones are too afraid to live within the form. like if you are doing work with fairy tales and you are refusing to look closer at the underlying logic and unspoken rules of what can seem at first to be a senseless form, you are not going to create meaningful work. to borrow a turn of phrase originally used by maria tatar, if you refuse to enter “the house of fairy tale” as anything more than a gawking tourist, you will miss the particular order to the way the table is set, the rooms that are locked vs the rooms that are simply difficult to enter, the set of the floorboards and the position of the furniture. whatever you build will then be a gilded imitation of how you believe the house of fairy tale ought to look, the table set according to your educated specifications and every door open. there can be no interrogation of themes from a writer who views the form as beneath them!

Shoutout to Rebecca Ferguson and Gwendoline Christie for hearing "Garden" and immediately jumping to The Witch from Into The Woods Act 2.

Hi, I have to ask, because it's slowly driving me crazy :-) During the Drunk scene (S1e1) Do you know what book/magazine Crowley is holding (and clearly showing, just before sobering up). I tried, but can't figure it out and google is no help either. Thanks if you know.

Hiya! :)

first he's holding Stephen Sondheim's musical Into the Woods

and then he's holding the theatre programme for the musical The Sound of Music

(and it's just that that later catches fire :))

No you don't understand.

It isn't my fault. I was GIVEN those beans; YOU persuaded me to trade away my cow for beans. And without those beans, there'd have been no stalk to get up to the giants in the FIRST PLACE.
