Hansel and Gretel: A Tanglewood Marionettes Production

Hansel and Gretel is based on the classic fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm and features melodies from the Humperdinck opera. The colorful set is in the shape of a giant story book; as the pages turn, each new and exciting scene is revealed. All the staging, scenery, and marionettes are handcrafted by the Tanglewood Marionettes.

The story itself is set in the mid-nineteenth century. As the tale unfolds, Hansel and Gretel must call upon their inner reserves and learn new methods to overcome the challenges they encounter while lost in the wood. 

Appropriate for Grades K - 6th; best for Grades 1st - 6th
