Synopsis: | This enchanting play for Christmas is a new telling of an old tale. Hansel and Gretel are starving, living in a house where there's nothing to eat. However, they soon find themselves living in a house where everything is to eat (including the house itself!) but they themselves are the main thing on the menu. Gothic, funny, scary and exciting! This fairytale is magical festive entertainment and the perfect alternative to a traditional pantomime. | |||||

Notes: | From The Book By E Nesbit | |||||
| Mike Kenny's imaginative stage adaptation of E. Nesbit's much-loved children's classic. Famously filmed, this story of a prosperous Edwardian family - mother and three children - forced into near-penury in the rural north of England captures the anxieties and exhilarations of childhood with great tenderness and insight. As Mike Kenny says of his remarkably faithful adaptation, 'You dont need a real train to perform this play. . . the most powerful prop is the imagination of the audience, the most effective tool the skill of the actors.' So this version of The Railway Children, which offers three plum roles for young performers, is eminently suitable for schools, youth theatres and drama groups - anywhere, in fact, where the cry of 'Daddy! My Daddy!' is likely to provoke a tear. . . | |||||
