Hansel & Gretel - A Shadow Play for Adults & Children

https://dandelion.events/e/hanselandgretel

The woods are calling; step beneath the canopy and follow the scent of sugar! Two children find themselves abandoned in the forest and encounter a house of confectionary that is more than what it seems. Hansel & Gretel tells the classic Grimm's tale through mesmerising shadow puppetry, storytelling and music. For adults and children (recommended 4+).


The Clockwork Moth are a multimedia arts duo, in collaboration with other artists, who specialise in shadow theatre. Highly intricate, funny and atmospheric, Hansel & Gretel is a new reworking of a 2019 commissioned by The National Trust for Wray Castle in the Lake District.

"...twilight entertainment, a place of dim light and mysterious figures emerging from the night. I almost envy the very young children in the audience; this will be something to linger in their dreams, a sibilant whisper interrupting their future lives as adults. Whispering of magic in the dark."
