Hansel and Gretel


Music by Engelbert Humperdinck
Libretto by Adelheid Wette


Some Treats Aren't So Sweet

This opera, based on the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale of a brother and sister, was actually written by a brother and sister. Humperdinck was persuaded to write the music by his sister, Adelheid, who wrote the libretto. The setting for this production has been reimagined as a fantasy carnival world delightfully enhanced by performers from Doug Varone & Dancers with set and costumes by Tony Award nominee David Zinn. Sprinkled with familiar melodies and topped with a happy ending, Hansel and Gretel promises to be a sweet start to the season.

John Keenan, Conductor | Doug Varone, Director

Runs approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes including one intermission. Sung in German with English subtitles.
