Midlands Light Opera Society is excited to present the opera Hansel and Gretel October 8 - 11 in the Pool Building of Bethel UMC (4600 Daniel Drive). This performance is an original English adaptation of the opera using Humperdinck&#39;s beautiful music with a fresh new libretto and dialogue by Evelyn Clary. It is suitable for all ages. Hansel (played as a child by Lina Cordova and as a teen by Evelyn Clary) and his sister Gretel (played as a child by Lilith Clary and a teen by Casiphia Wohlfeld) have lived happily in their village with their Papa (Roddey Smith) and Mutter (Bethany Cely), until an evil witch (Maria Beery) has terrorized the town by kidnapping children. Hansel and Gretel are tired of being safely stuck inside their home, so they decide to venture into the woods to destroy the witch. They are watched over by the Sandman (Patrick Pilat) and Dew Fairy (Laura Hutchins). Can these two kids beat the witch and save their town? You&#39;ll have to come see to find out!
