"Hansel and Gretel" Take Memorable Walk in the Woods at MCCC's Kelsey Theatre Nov. 29 and 30

10/30/08


Young theater-goers are invited to journey into the woods with "Hansel and Gretel," coming to MCCC's Kelsey Theatre. Kaleidoscope Theatre presents a charming original musical version of this fairytale classic, featuring a cast of colorful characters, lots of laughter, songs and dancing. Dates and show times are Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 29 and 30 at 2 and 4 p.m. Kelsey Theatre is located on the college's West Windsor campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road.

When Hansel and Gretel journey into the woods, they stumble upon every child's dream: a house made entirely of candy. But when the house's owner - a silly witch named Grumpella Finklestink - discovers them, their delight quickly turns into concern. Members of the audience will join in the fun as the two sweet children outwit the wacky witch and her silly cat.
