Opera Kipling (OffFest Finalists 2023 and London Pub Theatre Awards Semi-Finalists 2023) are delighted to return with their production of Hansel & Gretel this summer as part of the Camden Fringe 2024.
Hansel and Gretel by Engelbert Humperdinck is a delicious operatic treat - set to a sumptuously rich score, sprinkled with comedy, adventure, and more tunes than you can shake a candy cane at, this show follows the classic story by the Brothers Grimm and features all the familiar characters but with a few surprises! Updated to the 1950s, this show explores the hunger for food and fame, what's good and healthy for us, and what's too good to be true... Opera never tasted so sweet! ★★★★1/2
‘Opera on the fringe? Yes please! Opera Kipling’s refreshing staging of Rossini’s Cinderella is an unpretentious treat!...[it] woos us with its glitter, attention to nostalgic minutiae, and a stunning score’
Mark Aspen Reviews ★★★★
‘La Cenerentola is a great classic story directed by a visionary… and interpreted beautifully…’
