Hanzel And Gretel

Storybook Theatre's Hansel And Gretel

A Family Musical

The famous story about a brother and his sister who leave home, follow bread crumbs through the woods, meet a funny witch and a wacky bird, and have all kinds of other adventures. Along the way they learn that no matter what sort of trouble you are in at home, it’s never a good idea to run away. Inspired by Grimm’s fairy tale, Hansel and Gretel is a happy, fun and interactive musical that’s ideal entertainment for kids ages 3 to 9 and their families. The kids in the audience will even have a chance to learn a dance number and be part of the story!

"Lloyd J. Schwarz's version of the story brings the familiar Brothers Grimm fairytale to life in a fun, non-scary way and Hope & Laurence Juber's upbeat musical numbers help make the two 20-minute acts just the right length for short attention spans…..The show's pace is lively and fun, and judging from the happy faces of the kids I saw, contains just the right combination of elements to keep them engaged from beginning to end." - Broadway World
