Sung in English with English supertitles, Hansel & Gretel brings a tender twist to the classic tale. In this retelling, the children are not abandoned but sent into the forest by their mother to forage for berries in the face of their family’s desperate poverty. Along their journey, they encounter gentle spirits, the Sandman, Dew Fairy, and a host of protective woodland angels, before discovering the witch’s infamous gingerbread house. Set to some of the most stunning music in the operatic repertoire, this production will delight opera newcomers and seasoned audiences alike.
