The local theatre is doing Into the Woods, Jr. How does it differ from the original?

The age limit for the show is 9-16, and I'm 16 and I wanted to audition. I love the original version, and I didn't really want to be in a screwy version of it. But I'm auditioning anyway, because at least it's Sondheim and I'll be on stage singing it.

I believe it's tweaked so that it's more appropriate, but I can't say for certain since I've never seen that version. Here's more info:

It is a VERY adult show. Sex scenes, language, horror themes, death and much more.
I assume Jr. has been edited. Don't know how great a show it'll be but if you're dealing with kids, this is the way to go.

I believe it takes out the second act. My friend played the baker in that version and he was mad that there was no second act, because that's what he really liked.
