Summer of Play: Wrongsemble presents Breadcrumbs

This brand new take on Hansel & Gretel is a family show packed full of music, magic and puppetry from Wrongsemble celebrates how even the simplest story can become the wildest fairytale in the hands of the right storyteller!

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Hansel and Gretel are siblings that just can't seem to get along. They argue about everything: Who's the loudest, who's the fastest, who's the smartest, who's Mum's favourite, and who gets the most Christmas presents?! So when they wake up lost and confused in the heart of the enchanted forest one day, it's no surprise they even disagree about how they came to be there! But with only a trail of breadcrumbs to guide them home, they'll have to put aside their differences once and for all to solve the mystery of how they got there and make it home in time for tea!

Enjoy Breadcrumbs on the South Lawn from Wrongsemble's travelling Imaginarium stage.

No booking necessary.

Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank with support from Sport England.
