Created especially for students, families, and teachers, this special school show matinee brings the cherished fairy tale to life with enchanting music, imaginative staging, and a story that has captivated audiences for generations. Sung in English with easy-to-follow supertitles, Hansel & Gretel offers a heartfelt twist on the classic tale. Here, the children are not abandoned but sent into the forest by their mother to gather berries in the midst of their family’s desperate poverty. Along the way, they meet gentle spirits, the Sandman, the Dew Fairy, and a host of protective woodland angels before stumbling upon the witch’s legendary gingerbread house. Set to some of the most luminous music in the operatic repertoire, this production promises to enchant first-time opera-goers and longtime fans alike.
