Once upon a time, two children enter the dark woods leaving a trail of
bread crumbs to find their way home. The forest holds many mysteries,
disembodied voices carry on the wind, eyes seem to follow them from
the knots, burls, and boles in the twilight of the trees. Lost, in the
middle of nowhere, they come across a gingerbread house festooned with
candy and sweets, a confectionery castle of delectable delights, which
holds a dark secret that threatens their very lives. Based on the
Brothers Grimm fairy tale, Hansel and Gretel is a surreal production
featuring astonishing life-sized puppets designed by Victoria's Old
Trout Puppet Workshop, a to bring the dreamlike forest, and countless
whimsical visual delights to life. Enchanting and accessible,
Engelbert Humperdinck's score, which will be performed in English, is
filled with drama and wonder, and is the perfect holiday entertainment
to charm the whole family. Sung in English with projected English
translations.
