FAQ’s
What is the story about?
When Hansel + Gretel’s parents decide their only option to give their children a better life is to abandon them in the woods, the children must fend for themselves. Hansel + Gretel will need to rely on their wits, each other and the audience as they battle through the depths of the enchanted forest.
Hansel + Gretel’s attempt to get home soon gets side-tracked – quite literally – by a trail of treats too good to resist and a seemingly-sweet stranger with a plan all of her own…
Come and help them to navigate tricks and traps, as they weave their way back home.
Created especially for pre-school children and their families, Hansel + Gretel presents a fresh, interactive take on the story you thought you knew so well… with twists & turns galore. Transforming venues this Winter, the show promises to truly captivate you. Join us in an interactive, sensory performance that will grip the imagination of a whole new generation of children and young people.
What age is Hansel + Gretel suitable for?
The show has been made with young children in mind and is suitable for 2yrs and up…. But, don’t let that young age fool you – previous productions have been enjoyed by a wide variety of Primary ages due to its interactive nature.
Is Hansel + Gretel suitable for neurodiverse children and young people with SEND?
Absolutely! This production would be great engagement. The show is immersive with high levels of interaction. Seating is very flexible, we rugs and beanbags available for soft sitting and performances are very atmospheric. You can sit as near or far to the action as you would like.
The characters are prepared and ready to engage is much as our audiences are prepared to, there is no pressure… and if your young ones get overwhelmed at all, our Arts Outburst based performances have an seating area just outside of the performance space that can accommodate a chill out space.
