Information

After a sell-out season in 2018, Hippodrome Associate Open Theatre’s Hansel and Gretel returns.

A flustered storyteller is joined by a mischievous mocking bird as he follows Hansel and Gretel deep into the forest. All is not what it seems, as the characters start to tell their own version of this peculiar adventure.

Live music, hilarious performance and a mesmerising design ensure that this play will entertain and amuse the entire family.

Co-produced by Birmingham Hippodrome.
Directed by Esther Simpson.

Open Theatre has been working with young performers with learning disabilities for 30 years.
