Hansel and Gretel

dlr Mill Theatre, Thursday 4th December - Sunday 4th January

A Magical Christmas Adventure…

When clever Gretel and her caring brother Hansel are left deep in the forest by their not-so-nice new stepmother, things start to get a little spooky . . . and a little sweet. Lost and alone, they come across the most gorgeous gingerbread house, decorated with the tastiest of treats. But, they’ll need their wits – and a sprinkle of bravery – to outsmart a wicked old witch looking for a sweet tooth and her sidekick Squawker, the cowardly crow.

Luckily, they meet the cheeky and lovable Fizzle Mc Fluffy, a magical forest critter with a few tricks up its sleeve. Together, they’ll navigate enchanted woods, dodge danger, and find their way back to their loving Father. They discover just how strong, smart, and unstoppable they really are – especially when they stick together.

Featuring a wonderfully talented ensemble cast, and beautifully crafted puppetry, this adventure will transport you with familiar songs, laugh-out-loud moments, plenty of surprises, audience interaction, and a big helping of Christmas cheer. Magical, mysterious and mischievous – the dlr Mill Theatre’s fun-filled festive show is perfect for young audiences and the young at heart.
