Hansel and Gretal at the Theatre Royal
This is a Past Event and has been Archived.
Hansel and Gretel Engelbert Humperdinck New Production Sung in English with English supertitles New translation by Bill Bankes-Jones Based on the Grimms' fairy tale, Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel is both wonderfully unsettling and moving, a story of poverty, magic and triumph over adversity. Director Bill Bankes-Jones (Artistic Director of Tête à Tête) takes the opera back to its roots, revealing a macabre tale full of psychological depth and enchantment. Hansel and Gretel are getting under their mother's feet and, at the end of her tether, she sends them into the woods to collect strawberries. As darkness falls, they realise they are lost. Terrified, they spend the night on the forest floor.
