Hansel and Gretel
Synopsis:
Lost in the deep dark forest, the children come across many well known fairytale figures who try to help, or hinder them, as they draw ever closer to a strange house that looks good enough to eat! Throughout this adventure, audiences are actively encouraged to join in with the show; providing sound effects and practical help as Hansel and Gretel and their many friends make their way through the enchanted forest. This classic tale is given a fine sprinkling of Forest Forge magic along with a large dollop of Bumblefly fun. The resulting production is full of vibrant, traditional story telling; packed with laughs and songs.
