Synopsis Spring 2010

"Hansel and Gretel: the New Story"

This contemporary version of the old fairy tale finds our well known characters living in a city just like yours. They are enjoying all the modern electronic devices and willing to wonder off physically and electronically with this new breed of stranger. But, just as our two characters are about to step into danger, the magical Mathilda, armed with her wizardly whistle and bag full of safety information, saves them and arms them with tools for their next encounter with the bad guys. Our version of the story will engage viewers with dancing, humor and music, all while educating young students about the dangers around them. “Hansel & Gretel: the New Story” will give young viewers practical tips to avoid getting themselves into dangerous situations. Written by egla Birmingham, this play finds a fun way to raise attention to cyber-stalking and the dangers involved with social networking.
