Hansel and Gretel at Missoula Children’s Theatre

Doors 1 Hour Prior to Performance

The Missoula Children’s Theatre presents Hansel and Gretel, an original adaptation of the classic children’s story. This Day Camp is open to students 1st-12th grade.

Adapted by Jim Caron Music and Lyrics by Michael McGill and Jim Caron 

Poor Hank and Gretchen! All of their friends, off to summer camp, have left them behind. While waiting for dinner, Hank and Gretchen fall asleep and dream their way to times gone by. They wake with a start!  Their clothes are so strange–and so are their names. Lost in the deep dark woods, Granny leads Hansel and Gretel on a search for the path which will lead them to better times at home. But as evening approaches, Hansel and Gretel are not alone! The Rascals dart from tree to tree as sweet little Wallybirds munch on the cookie crumbs left as a map on the forest floor. Crafty cooks and Gingerbread Men lead our heroes to a colorful cottage concocted completely of candy and cakes, where Hansel and Gretel unravel the secret of the Wildwood Witch: Is she bad? Or is she good? Is she wicked…Or misunderstood? There’s music and laughter and thrills and chills. So join the fun as Hansel and Gretel’s dream is mysteriously blended with real life, and the lessons of one apply to the other.
