The classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale comes to life with the Ralph Opera Program's performance of Engelbert Humperdinck's "Hansel and Gretel." Humperdinck’s sister, Adelheid Wette, wrote the libretto of the Märchenoper or fairy-tale opera, which is considered a key work of the German genre but with roots in Italian opera. The opera tells the tale of two abandoned siblings who encounter a mysterious gingerbread house in the woods and fall into the hands of the owner, a witch with evil intentions.
