We were really pleased to get a mention in The Guardian's theatre picks by Lyn Gardner for forthcoming shows this week:

"Keep your eye on the Junction for the forthcoming Hansel and Gretel, which seems like a perfect match for inventive international group NIE Theatre"

Trying out some costumes and puppets

This week we started rehearsal this week in Cambridge. As well as working on music and some the key scenes from the story we tried out some costume ideas and played with the two Hansel and Gretel puppets.
