Come on an enchanting adventure in Northern Ballet's brand-new children's ballet Hansel & Gretel.

In this reimagined classic, Hansel and Gretel take a walk through the woods, unaware of the damage they leave behind. But when they get lost, they meet a host of spirited friends who teach them how we can all better look after the planet - and have some fun along the way!

Northern Ballet's magical ballets for children bring much-loved fairy tales to life with bold sets, bright costumes and brilliant live music and dance - the perfect way for you and your child to experience the wonder of ballet together.
