Hänsel Und Gretel

3 Dec - 6 Dec

An edgy, dream-like, synaesthetic, urban reimagining of Humperdinck’s classic fairy tale which unfolds on the gritty streets of a sprawling, modern city. Six fabulous casts led by Panaretos Kyriatzidis and Chad Vindin,  produced by Marrianne Town Smith and associate artists of Uncovered Opera Company – present the story of two rebellious teens as they wander through an urban jungle’s alleyways and neon-lit corners in search of something to eat. They stumble upon a 24 hour, vape sweet shop and discover (cloaked in clouds of candy-scented vapor and charisma), a Gingerbread Witch, who lures lost souls with sweet-smelling fog and glittering promises… This fairy tale opera is suitable for all!

Production sung in German with English Surtitles.
