Soo Youth Theatre is excited to announce their production of Hansel & Gretel directed by Karen Hughes Beacom. This production, originally a full-scale opera, has been pared down by Beacom to allow students in our education program the opportunity of performing an opera. Students ages 7 to 18 have been cast for all roles. Beacom will accompany this production on piano and will be joined on some numbers by the STARS Youth Orchestra. A timeless classic fairy tale set to music, this is a family-friendly production for all ages to enjoy!
