Stephen Sondheim’s musical 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 because of a witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break it. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them with disastrous results.
