When Hänsel and Gretel venture into the forest with us, there is no wicked witch in a gingerbread house waiting for them - instead they meet a spring witch, an enchanted prince, and a mysterious glowing forest full of singing fairies and elves. Then, right in the middle of all this joyful music, King Frost appears and threatens to turn everything to ice. Will he succeed?

An interactive family concert for fairy-tale fans aged 4 and up.
