Hansel and Gretel

A classic tale re-told by Mike Kenny

This is a new telling of an old tale. Though it’s as old as the hills the story of Hansel and Gretel comes up shiny and new for our consumerist times. Hansel and Gretel are starving, living in a house where there’s nothing to eat. However, they soon find themselves living in a house where everything is to eat (including the house itself!) but they themselves are the main thing on the menu. Come and see them fall out of the frying pan and then climb out of the fire. Gothic, funny, scary and exciting! Come and eat yourself silly and laugh yourself daft.

“Playwright Mike Kenny has given the story a new twist without losing any of its essence; the parents begin by telling it to their ungrateful and complaining children; then the family become part of the story themselves.” - Sparkler
