Kneehigh : Hansel & Gretel
Date: Friday 9th April
Time: 19:30
a wonder tale
‘finger licking fun...spellbinding’
****The Daily Mail
‘quirkily inventive...full of merry grotesquerie’
**** The Guardian
‘Kneehigh...one of our liveliest national treasures’.
The Times
Times are tough for the family in the wood
They’d eat like kings if they only could
But hunger gnaws - famine stalks the land
Something quite wicked has the upper hand!
Poor mother and father must do “what is best”…
And Hansel and Gretel will be put to the test!
Armed with their very last slice of bread
Will they eat to survive or leave a trail home instead?
Let the irrepressible Kneehigh take you by the hand and lead you into deepest part of the forest!
Renowned for our irreverent, funny and physical performance style, from our base in Gorran Haven we delight audiences throughout the UK and nationally. We are hugely excited to be bringing Hansel and Gretel home to Cornwall at Heligan Gardens.
Prepare for a world of darkness, wit and wonder, of earthy delights and crooked shadows. This re-telling of the classic story includes lively music, rough poetry, the most amazing gadgets and gizmos... and is told with the help of some rather unlucky rabbits.
Join Kneehigh for temptations impossible to resist. For children and brave adults everywhere.
