On Saturday, September 19 we brought our take on Humperdinck’s Hänsel und Gretel to charming Park Slope community garden 6/15 Green. The performance was sung in original German and staged playfully throughout the garden.

This was a magical afternoon for everyone involved — the garden was filled with audience members of all ages, along with the sounds of some truly incredible voices.
