Presented by Berks Opera Company in collaboration with Albright College, Hänsel & Gretel is the ultimate musical story for children of all ages. A pair of unruly siblings overcome deprivation and questionable parenting decisions, narrowly escape being eaten, and by courage and wit defeat the evil witch’s supernatural powers. Delightful visuals: a candy and gingerbread house and a witch-sized oven. Plenty of action to keep a kid’s attention.

Follow the story of a young bird, named Max and his family, as they begin their journey south for the winter. When Max gets blown off course and ends up at the North Pole…his adventure begins! Dancing toy soldiers, caroling worms and performing poinsettia’s, light up the stage in Lightwire Theater’s A Very Electric Christmas. Audiences of all ages will treasure this magical and captivating tale of family, friendship and hope set to timeless holiday hits, including Nat King Cole, Mariah Carey and Tchaikovsky.
