TWO PRINCES: (from left) Eric Hohnke, a sophomore from Chelsea, as Rapunzel's prince and Maxim Hunt, a junior from Allen Park, playing Cinderella's prince, perform "Agony" during a scene from EMU Theatre's production of "Into the Woods." During the number, the two princes lament their chase to win their damsels' hearts. "Into the Woods" follows the residents of a faraway land as they set out to make their wishes come true. Stories of traditional fairy tale characters — such as Little Red Riding Hood and Jack and the Beanstalk — are woven together in the first act. In the second act, the characters eventually make their wshes come true, but are still unsatisfied — while having to face a vengeful giant. The EMU Theatre production concluded its run in Sponberg Theatre June 6.
