Indulge your sweet tooth for adventure with this treat of an opera … In this classic fairy tale, a walk in the forest turns into a discovery of delights and frights. A gingerbread house tempts Hansel and Gretel’s taste buds, but beware … behind those sugar-coated gumdrop walls lurks a witch! Hansel and Gretel must stick together to free the forest from a wicked spell. Come see what two clever children can do!
