Hänsel und Gretel

In Hänsel und Gretel, Engelbert Humperdinck masterfully combined simple folk-like melodies with Wagnerian techniques to create the world’s favourite fairy tale opera.

The darker psychological recesses of the original Brothers Grimm tale will be brought to the fore in CTO’s new production, designed by renowned artist-photographer Roger Ballen, and directed by Alessandro Talevi.

The show will run at the Artscape Theatre Centre from 3-10 April.

Tickets cost R400 and are available at Computicket.
