A nightmare-inducing Hänsel und Gretel

Ilana Walder-Biesanz, 25th November

The Bayerische Staatsoper's production of Hänsel und Gretel is successful both musically and dramatically, but don't come expecting a charming fairy tale: This eerie staging is not for the very young or the faint of heart.
