ARTrageous audiences will be among the first to see ArtReach’s new touring production of a fairytale classic. ArtReach has taken to the road with a new musical version of Hansel and Gretel, by Mary Tensing. The touring production stops at RWC, Saturday January 30.ArtReach, which merged with the Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati in 2005, describes their version of Hansel and Gretel as a “musical romp.” Colorful sets, song, and dance will add a light touch to this mysterious story of two children who, while lost in the woods, discover the truth about that peculiar old lady in the ginger bread cottage.
ARTrageous Saturdays, RWC’s performing arts series geared for children ages 3-10, is sponsored by the City of Blue Ash. ArtReach performances of Hansel and Gretel are at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. in Muntz Theatre. All tickets are $5. For tickets and information on group rates call 745-5705 or visit www.rwc.uc.edu.
