For generations of children Humperdinck's »Hansel and Gretel« was and is the first unforgettable opera experience. The story of the two broom-maker children who - chased out of the house by their mother - wander fearfully through the forest until they come to an enticing witch's house, only to find themselves in danger there, was freely adapted by the composer's sister, Adelheid Wette Grimm's Fairy Tales in Verse. Humperdinck, as a composer stylistically close to Wagner, invented captivating music for the fairy tale pictures, from the »evening blessing« to the singing of the sandman and the dewman, to the frightening witch, which has fascinated children and adults alike since its inception.

Originally it was only supposed to be a home theater performance. But what had begun in 1890 with a few verses of children's songs by Adelheid Wette, set to music by Humperdinck, gradually took on the characteristics of a large, fully-fledged opera as the work progressed. When the play was finished, the opera houses in Munich and Karlsruhe quickly acquired the performance rights. However, the premiere finally took place in Weimar in 1893 under the musical direction of none other than Richard Strauss. The Lübeck production is based on historical stage design templates from the time the opera was created, which the stage designer Thomas Döll found in theater archives and made usable for today's stage, and takes you into a bygone theater world that is still attractive today.

English

Für Generationen von Kindern war und ist Humperdincks »Hänsel und Gretel« das erste, unvergessliche Opernerlebnis. Die Geschichte der beiden Besenbinderkinder, die - von der Mutter aus dem Haus gejagt - angstvoll durch den Wald irren, bis sie zu einem verlockenden Hexenhaus kommen, um dort erst recht in Gefahr zu geraten, hat die Schwester des Komponisten, Adelheid Wette, frei nach Grimms Märchen in Verse gebracht. Humperdinck, als Komponist stilistisch Wagner nahestehend, erfand für die Märchenbilder berückende Musik vom »Abendsegen« über Sandmännchens und Taumännchens Gesang bis hin zur furchteinflößenden Hexe, die Kinder wie Erwachsene seit ihrer Entstehung in ihren Bann zieht.

Ursprünglich sollte es nur eine Haustheateraufführung werden. Doch was 1890 mit einigen Kinderlied-Versen Adelheid Wettes, von Humperdinck vertont, begonnen hatte, nahm im Verlauf der Arbeit immer mehr die Züge einer großen, vollgültigen Oper an. Als das Stück fertig gestellt war, erwarben die Opernhäuser in München und Karlsruhe schnell die Aufführungsrechte. Die Uraufführung fand jedoch schließlich 1893 in Weimar unter der musikalischen Leitung von keinem Geringeren als Richard Strauss statt. Die Lübecker Inszenierung basiert auf historischen Bühnenbildvorlagen aus der Entstehungszeit der Oper, die der Bühnenbildner Thomas Döll in Theaterarchiven ausfindig und für die heutige Bühne umsetzbar gemacht hat, und entführt in eine längst vergangene, doch heute noch reizvolle Theaterwelt.
