OFC Creations Theatre Center presents “Hansel and Gretel” Friday, January 20, through Sunday, January 22. The production, directed by Marge Mattioli, features a cast of professional performers. Throughout the production, audiences will feel as if they are also traveling along this magical journey and even being tempted by the smell of the candy house.
Adapted for the stage by William Glennon, this version of Hansel and Gretel tells the story of White Bird and the Gnome who fall under the spell of the Wicked Witch and are forced to lure children deep into the forest so that the Witch can eat them. When Hansel and Gretel’s father returns home without food or money, the whole family goes berry picking. They become lost in the woods where they encounter the White Bird and the Gnome. Hungry and tired, the White Bird and Gnome bring the children to the Witch’s delectable cottage made entirely from candy and cake. There the exciting and often-comical adventure ensues.
Performances of “Hansel and Gretel” are January 20 at 7 p.m., January 21 at 2 and 7 p.m., and January 22 at 2 p.m.
Tickets are $18 per adult guest, $12 per child, and are for sale online at https://OFCCreations.com/tickets or by calling 585-667-0954. Tickets also can be purchased in person at OFC’s The Old Farm Cafe during all public hours.
