Production shots

We now have some great production shots from the show thanks to Claire Haugh which give some idea of what the show looks like (although even better to come along to The Junction and have a look at our winter wonderland!)

The Guardian - theatre tips

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"

Say cheese!

Last week we had a great time doing a photoshoot at The Junction with two actors from the show, Rew Lowe and Steffi Mueller (who is also the set designer for Hansel & Gretel). We borrowed loads of different costumes from Classworks Theatre Hire and spent a morning dressing up and playing about with them to get different shots to promote the show.

Christa Holka, a fashion photographer worked with NIE's Artistic Director Alex Byrne to get pictures that reflected the live music in the show and the different emotions in the story.

Book now for a Christmas treat

Tickets are now on sale for Hansel and Gretel at The Junction which makes us very excited.

We won't go into rehearsals until November but we are already designing leaflets and posters for the show so look out for these around Cambridge in the next couple of months.

We are also having meetings with our set designer to think about how we can build a forest in The Junction's theatre space. It might look something like this but with much more snow everywhere.
