There’s Still Time to See #IntoTheWoods

January 25, 2015 by Lisa Leave a Comment

There are three things in this world that I absolutely love: Disney, fairy tales and musicals. And when my three loves join forces, I get starry eyed. I guess that’s why I love Into The Woods!  
Back in November, I was invited to a screening of Into The Woods. I went solo after work (yeah, I don’t care about going by myself to the movies) and the theater was packed with long time, star struck, die hard fans. I had no idea what I was about to see. I remember when Into The Woods was playing on Broadway, I just never had the opportunity to see it. And I totally regret never seeing it live. But I am grateful I got to see it on the big screen. Because if you love Disney, fairy tales and movies – Into The Woods is a must. 
I loved that I saw another side to my favorite fairy tale characters. I liked that the story line stayed true to the darkness of the Brothers Grimm’s tales but still had humor and whimsy.
I really wish I could say that I could pick a favorite character. But it’s hard to choose just one. 
I mean, Meryl as the Witch is just amazing. Because…MERYL!
Emily Blunt as the Baker’s Wife is also wonderful. I’ve been a long time fan and she always plays a different character. I admire that about her and I was surprised by her voice. While I wasn’t familiar with the Baker or his wife’s tale but as far as character’s go, I think I identified with her most.
And then Anna Kendrick as Cinderella is perfect – she’s fierce and feminine. And I love the over all message that her character conveys, especially for young women.
But the voice that really blew me away was Lilla Crawford as Little Red Riding Hood. I especially love when she sings “I Know Things Now.” 
I will be honest, Into The Woods was not at all what I expected. I don’t want to give it away if you’ve never seen it but I liked that there was a little plot twist. I laughed out loud and I cried. The entire movie just makes me want to sing. I may not be able to wait until the movie comes, I think I need the soundtrack.
If you haven’t seen Into The Woods yet, what are you waiting for? It’s still playing in theater.     

“Into the Woods” is a modern twist on several beloved fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone), and Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy), all tied together by an original story involving a Baker and his Wife (James Corden and Emily Blunt), their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the Witch (Meryl Streep), who has put a curse on them.

Instagram post 2181675747075400220_20602182 When I graduated with an MFA, I knew I wanted to teach at the college level. Having the opportunity to return to my alma mater as an adjunct lecturer is truly a gift. And my long term goal is to get my PhD so that I may continue a career in academia. I know it’s a white dominated field and I have to bring my own chair to the table. But I have a right to sit at the table. I have the brains, the determination and the passion. And I deserve equal pay. Salary should not be determined by ethnicity or gender. “Each day that a Latina is not paid fairly is one day too many, and the impact of losing even one cent has real consequences for Latinas and our families.” #latinaequalpay

Instagram post 2180853669707287687_20602182 Some days are for red lips and a dope fit... other days are for sleeping till noon, Yogi Calm tea, cuddled up on the sofa in an old cardigan and sweats, grading papers trying to ignore the parade in my head.
Instagram post 2180745009056316697_20602182 I just said this the other day... I feel so much better - physically, emotionally, spiritually - about myself now at 44 than I did at 24. I When I was in my 20s and 30s I used to think of 40 as “old” but it’s not. In so many ways my life is just beginning. I’m not where I want to be but I am hopeful. Although I don’t know what’s next. I do know that I have enough. I do enough. I am enough. And as long as I keep doing the next right thing, the right things will happen. 🪁

Instagram post 2179558141006674811_20602182 It feels really good to be the keeper of my own life. I’m not waiting for things to happen, I’m taking charge and designing the life I want to live. 💛 @shegoeswithgratitude ・・・
You are the keeper of your life.  Only you can determine what, when, and how you do things.  Be the curator of your own life; design it well. ⠀
