Hänsel und Gretel is an opera by 19th century Germany composer Engelbert Humperdinck. After the overwhelming success of its premiere, the opera has secured a place in the repertoires of major opera houses for young audience's "first opera experience." This summer, on the 100th anniversary of Humperdinck's death, NTT presents a brand-new production of Hänsel und Gretel with a modern take. Directed by interdisciplinary artist Ballboss, led by young German-based Taiwanese conductor YANG Su-han and accompanied by a local sinfonietta orchestra, the opera is set in the present day with familiar daily life setting to close the gap between fairytale and modern-day reality. It is a magical adventure of finding one's way back home.
