The Public Theater has added a family-friendly performance of “Into the Woods,” James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim’s musical take on classic fairy tales, to take place on Wednesday Aug. 22 at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park. The free one-act matinee, part of the annual Shakespeare in the Park festival, is intended “to engage younger audiences and to serve families unable to attend evening performances,” the Public said.
Most of the tickets will be distributed through a lottery that can be accessed atwww.shakespeareinthepark.org/matinee, starting Aug. 15 at 4 p.m. A limited number of standby tickets will be given out on the day of the performance.
