Description
In the middle of the cold, dark forest Hansel and Gretel are lost and hungry. As they sit shivering, they glimpse a tiny cottage through the trees across the woods.
A cottage unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Its roof is made of gingerbread, the walls of chocolate cake, the door is made of boiled sweets and the windows are made of a clear, crystalised sugary glaze. But what’s inside?
The Tobacco Factory Theatre will be transformed this year into a magical and mythical land in this classic fairytale by the Brothers Grimm.
Join the Student Life Team for an alternative festive experience at this incredible live theatre performance. The Tobacco Factory offers original and innovative theatre that will wow and entertain.
This event is for current UWE Bristol students only.
Please meet the team at Frenchay Campus bus stop at 17:45 and we will leave at 18:00. The performance starts at 19:00.
