Hansel and Gretel, an opera by Engelbert Humperdinck

Shakespeare Opera Theatre presents a family friendly fairy tale opera: Engelbert Humperdinck’s Hansel & Gretel. Sung in English, mischief, hunger, and an amble into the mythical Black Forest of Bavaria lead to an encounter with the Witch and her gingerbread house. All’s well that ends well (thanks, Shakespeare), but this story is all about the journey! Humperdinck’s music, built on folk-inspired themes, brings both playfulness and intensity to this classic story. Bring the whole family to this highly accessible and fun opera-we have treats and games for the child in everyone!

Table seating opens 30 minutes before each performance. Themed food and drink is available before and throughout the show, along with treasures for purchase at the German Christmas market in our lobby. See you there!
