Strange versionI vaguely remember reading an article about some staging of ITW that was very risque.
I don't know much about the history of this show, maybe it's one of the major productions.
Can anyone give me any info?

There are several things in the OBC that I would consider risque.
-The Wolf has an atomically correct costume that is emphasized by a blunt pelvic thrust at the end of his song.
-The Witch is cast several spells that are aimed at the Baker and Baker's Wife' private areas.
-The Baker's Wife and Cinderella's Prince rolling on to the stage together.
-Also a lot of the female's costumes in the OBC are a bit more revealing then neccessary (particulary the Stepsisters and The Witch).

There have been a few productions of ITW that try to bring out the "adult situations" a bit more. Just like Drama Queen said: In the OBP the Wolf had a very visable penis. His song "Hello Little Girl" is also quite sexual. One of the productions that went the darker more adult route, I believe, was done with The Stratford Festival a couple of years ago. I never saw it but know a few people who did. I remember one saying that at some point during the show A life sized drawing of a naked woman was seen sliding across the stage. I, personaly, have no idea what that was for, but every one that I know who saw it said that it was an incredible production. Hope this helps.

Yup. That's the production I heard about.
