Presents
Hansel and Gretel By Kidzstuff
Written by Carl Nixon and
Directed by Jane Waddell
3 – 17 April
At
4 Moncrieff St., Mt. Victoria
In this tale of blended families’ gone horribly wrong, Hansel and Gretel try to outwit their mean stepmother, when she
abandons them in the forest, but their hungry tummies land them in big trouble.
Hansel & Gretel need all the help they can get to escape from the wicked witch with a taste for pudgy boys and find their way
home!
A cautionary tale of the dangers of too many sweets!
KidzStuff has produced many successful plays written by the talented New Zealand writer Carl Nixon, including The Frog
Prince and The Owl and the Pussy Cat (2004) and A Dragon of an Ordinary Family (2006).
We are delighted to have Jane Waddell directing for KidzStuff for the second time, after last year’s hit show
Cinderella. Jane is a Wellington based actor, and director, who recently starred in Roger Hall’s Dick Whittington and
his Cat at Circa.
