This fairy-tale opera is perfect for a special family outing that brings together children, parents and grandparents, as well as opera aficionados and newcomers alike. With humour, warmth and a keen sense of how children see the world, this production tells a story of courage, sibling love and the power of solidarity. When good triumphs in the end, it leaves behind a feeling of comfort, confidence and that fairy-tale magic that connects generations.
Engelbert Humperdinck's classic opera is an experience for everyone who loves fairy tales – touching, exciting and full of wonder. Its colourful music transports you to a world of magic and emotional depth, inviting young and old alike to marvel, laugh and share in the excitement.
In Dagmar Manzel's imaginative production, the famous opera becomes a living dreamscape in which playfulness and seriousness, fear and poetry lie close together. Dancing trees, mysterious forest creatures and the lively witch's cottage of Rosina Leckermaul, the gingerbread witch, transform the forest into a place of wonder.
