Hansel and Gretel (short version)

 

Music by Engelbert Humperdinck  Libretto by Adelheid Wette

-  Edited by Anna Etsuko Tsuri-

​

The production is based on the concept of “To Have a life feeling close to your five senses, and integration with the audience and the performers.”  The auditorium is decorated and the seats are rearranged as if we were part of the world of “Hansel and Gretel”.  The audience’s role is as “forest trees and berry bushes” with translucent leafs and berries.  The singers walk and sing among them, sharing the play and the experience of witch magic with the audience!
