Scottish Opera premieres Humperdinck’s enchanting Hansel and Gretel in the latest Scottish Opera: On Screen.
The whole family can immerse themselves in this modern adaptation of the classic fairy tale from Wednesday 10 February at 6pm, via the Scottish Opera website.
Filmed at Glasgow’s Theatre Royal on 19 December, with staging by Daisy Evans, this vivid and joyful reimagining of Humperdinck’s opera is fun for all the family, with bright colours, big energy and plenty of glitter!
Daisy said: "With the current pandemic, everybody has had a difficult time, so I wanted it to be about finding joy where we can, and about families celebrating together. And I also want it to encourage people to come back to the theatre, and to bring their children with them – to make them want to be part of this experience, and to invest in it as part of our culture.’
