The woods are calling — step beneath the canopy and follow the scent of sugar! Two children find themselves abandoned in the forest and encounter a house of confectionery that is more than what it seems. Hansel & Gretel tells the classic Grimm's tale through mesmerising shadow puppetry, storytelling and music.
For adults and children (recommended 4+). Runnig time 45 mins plus optional 'meet the puppets' session afterwards.
The Clockwork Moth is a multimedia arts duo specialising in shadow theatre. Highly intricate, funny and atmospheric, Hansel & Gretel is a new reworking of a 2019 production that was commissioned by The National Trust for Wray Castle in the Lake District.
Its production Three Golden Hairs was described as:
”…twilight entertainment, a place of dim light and mysterious figures emerging from the night. I almost envy the very young children in the audience: this will be something to linger in their dreams, a sibilant whisper interrupting their future lives as adults. Whispering of magic in the dark.”
