Original Into the Woods movie costumes and props on display...

Another character featured in Stephen Sondheim's twisted musical take on familiar Brothers Grimm fairytales is 'Jack and the Beanstalk', and here's a selection of screen-used film costumes and props from Disney's big screen adaptation of Into the Woods on display at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood on January 6, 2015.

The Oscar-nominated Colleen Atwood was responsible for these turn-of-the-century, poor rural folk costumes worn by the young Daniel Huttlestone as the infamous 'Jack', who trades his cow 'Milky-White' for some magic beans, and Tracey Ullman as his mother.

In addition to these two outfits, there were many other fantastic movie costumes from Into the Woods on display, all influenced by different fashions, ideas and time periods, an eclectic mashup of styles, just like the musical interweaves many iconic fairytales like Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella and Rapunzel into one story.

In addition to Jack's cow, the exhibit also featured such eclectic items as his sling used to fell the giant, magic beans, massive gold coins and a huge golden egg stolen from the land of the giants above the clouds, plus Rapunzel's hair brush, Cinderella's wedding bouquet, Red Riding Hood's basket and more besides. And the El Capitan Theatre always does such a great job presenting them all too, staging with leaves and branches for that authentic Into the Woods feel.
