There is something truly special about the opera arriving in town. This Season, Scottish Opera brings one of the most enchanting tales in the repertoire, and a family favourite, right here to Dundee Rep Theatre.

Humperdinck’s Hansel & Gretel is a story that speaks to all of us: two children, lost and hungry in a darkening forest, summoning every scrap of courage and wit to outsmart a very wicked witch indeed.

This beautifully crafted five-singer production, directed by Lucy Bradley, designed by Janis Hart, and accompanied by an intimate piano arrangement, strips the opera back to its storytelling heart. An exciting cast of up-and-coming opera singers, and a local children’s chorus, bring this fairy tale to life. Whether you are a lifelong opera lover or coming along for the very first time, prepare to be enchanted.
