This deliciously dark interpretation of the well-loved fairy tale will be devoured by anyone with a wicked sense of fun and fantasy.

Richard Jones revels in the nightmarish aspects of the story. His classic production dwells on the themes of hunger, gluttony and cannibalism which lie beneath the story's surface. Deep in the depths of the forest Hansel and Gretel must use all their guile and trickery to avoid a horrific fate.

Featuring a beautiful dream sequence involving a banquet served by a fish, this spellbinding production will intrigue those who wish to delve into the dark and comic side of opera.

Hansel and Gretel by Humperdinck, From (2015/2015), Directed by Richard Jones, Benjamin Davis,, Conductor Lothar Koenigs, Wales Millennium Centre, Cardiff, United Kingdom
