Information for Hansel and Gretel at The North Wall, Oxford (Kids show). Grimm's fairytale. The classic story of two children sent into the woods. Unable to find their way home, they find a cottage made of cake and candy. Here lives a wicked witch who locks Hansel in a cage and tries to fatten him up ready for her to eat. This Christmas we'll be transforming The North Wall into an atmospheric winter wonderland full of magic, mystery, and misadventure. Join Hansel, Grettel, and a host of bewitching characters and feathered friends as they serve up a musical menu of catchy songs, mystical spells, and just a touch of winter magic. Journey with us deep into the heart of the woodland, where the Witches of Winter rise from the frozen earth to prepare for the awakening of their leader, a mysterious witch known as the Priestess of Winter. Only the birds circling in the cold air high above can save them from the most powerful witch in the land.
