In the middle of the cold, dark forest, Hansel and Gretel are lost and hungry. As they sit, shivering, they glimpse a tiny cottage through the trees and across the woods… a cottage unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Its roof is made of gingerbread, the walls of chocolate cake, the door is made of boiled sweets and the windows a clear, crystalised sugary glaze. But what’s inside?
Following last year’s record-breaking Christmas hit, Oliver Twist, our Factory Theatre will be transformed this year into a magical and mythical land in this classic fairy-tale by the Brothers Grimm.
Having delighted audiences with The Snow Queen (2022), Snow White (2019) and Beauty and The Beast (2017), Tobacco Factory Theatres are thrilled to partner once more with the award-winning New International Encounter to bring you this sweet and joyful festive experience.
