Renaissance PAC's Summer Repertory Theatre (RenRep) is a tuition-free musical performance opportunity for for all students going into grades 7-12 and their Freshman Year of College for the 2026-2027 School Year.
With arts accessibility being a core foundation of Renaissance PAC’s mission, we believe there is a need to be met by offering a tuition-free summer program for young adults in the greater Omaha area. With little programming available for this age demographic around the area, we are hoping to provide an artistic outlet to as many young actors, technicians, and designers as we can, regardless of economic circumstances, school district, or other prohibiting factors.

about the show
James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim take everyone's favorite storybook characters and bring them together for a timeless, yet relevant, piece... and a rare modern classic. The Tony Award-winning book and score are both enchanting and touching.
Into the Woods begins with a montage of familiar fairy tale characters and stories. Cinderella wishes to attend the Prince’s festival, but her cruel stepsisters and stepmother are trying to prevent her from going. Jack (of Jack and the Beanstalk) wishes for a better life; but his mother, desperate for money, makes him take his cow, Milky White, into the woods to sell her. Little Red Riding Hood visits the Baker and the Baker’s Wife to purchase bread to take to her sick grandmother in the woods.
Meanwhile, the Baker and his wife lament the fact they are childless. Soon, the Witch from next door visits and reveals she is the cause behind their infertility: in the past she placed a curse on their family because they stole from her precious garden. In order to reverse the curse, the Witch assigns them a series of tasks to complete in “three days time.” During their quest to fulfill the witches’ demands, they encounter Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Cinderella, and numerous other fairy tale figures in the woods. Each story is altered and intertwined, and most eventually work towards the same goal, but not until they each realize the repercussions of their desired “happily ever afters.”
