One of the world's best children's operas is now in the Novaya Opera!

The premiere of the opera "Hansel and Gretel" by Engelbert Humperdinck
(1854–1921) took place in 1893 at the Weimar Court Theater under the direction of Richard Strauss himself, and less than a year later in Hamburg it was conducted by Gustav Mahler. The libretto based on the fairy tale of the Brothers Grimm was composed by the composer's sister Adelheid Wette. In Moscow, this amazing fairy-tale opera was assigned the name "Gingerbread House, or Hansel and Gretel".

Director Ekaterina Odegova calls her work a performance for family viewing. Not limited to the framework of children's theater, the production team endowed the performance with bright costumes, scenery, interactive and funny stage situations (for children), as well as additional meanings and cultural allusions (for their parents).

A fascinating fairy tale, wonderful music, magical sweets and a real holiday are waiting for you at the Novaya Opera Theater.
