Hansel and Gretel

October 5 – 12, 2024 | Keller Auditorium

UNITED STATES PREMIERE

Loughlan Prior

Hansel and Gretel’s black-and-white world explodes with color—and candy—when they meet a witch in the woods in this hit ballet from Australian choreographer Loughlan Prior.

Featuring an original score from Claire Cowan and a captivating silent-film-aesthetic, this fresh take on the famous fairy tale delivers the perfect amount of October spookiness.

“Richly layered and extremely rewarding…should be devoured by the world.” – New Zealand Herald
