Three actors ages 18 and over: Gretel; Hansel/Father; Mother/Witch. Some singing required.

Directed by Michael Frye.

Lost in a shadowy forest where hunger whispers and danger hides behind every tree, siblings Hansel and Gretel must rely on their wits, courage, and each other to find their way home. When they happen upon a mysterious cottage, they discover that cleverness and loyalty may be their only escape from the witch. This playful, and just a little dark, retelling brings the classic Grimm story to life.

Three dynamic, energetic actors, ages 18 and over, who enjoy working collaboratively and bringing imaginative stories to life for young audiences. Some singing is required.

• ·ACTOR 2 — Hansel/Father: Hansel is precocious and curious; Father is kind but exhausted.
• ·ACTOR 3 — Mother/Witch: Mother is sharp and callous; Witch is gleefully cruel and commanding.
