It’s a little scary … well, actually it’s a lot scary. It’s a Brothers Grimm fairy tale—it’s supposed to be scary!

But this completely new look at the beloved tale is also a whole lot of fun with a witch you’ll remember for a long, long while. Part maniac, part Julia Child, she wields a mean mixer, tossing in a dash of just about everything, including the kids!

A touching tribute to the wisdom and strength of children, along with some of the most gorgeous music ever written.

Sung in English with English translations projected above the stage.
