Hansel und Gretel

After having watched the less than 60 second trailer for Hansel und Gretel's tour, it looks like a modern day interpretation of the fairy tale. It's Laurent Pelly's highly imaginative retelling of Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel. It's an on stage show, performed in front of a live audience, so there's no time for after-the-fact special effects. It would look as though the witch's house is instead a candy store, and instead of a witch she must be the store owner. It looks like a great family friendly show to take the kids to.
