.h.g. “Hänsel and Gretel”

 

a theatre installation in 9 rooms

.h.g. translates the fairytale into an experience that is both aesthetical and sensorial. It a story made of sounds and silences, bones and flesh, food and hunger; a story with both a clean and ferocious smell. It is a story about home, then about forest, then again home. It is the story of two children who go into the thick of the forest holding hands.

.h.g. is a reading – and revision – of the classical fairy tale Hänsel and Gretel, in the shape of an installation where theatre and visual arts merge. The spectator walks through 9 different physical-sensory rooms accompanied and guided by earphones. Each room is a world on its own, a passage into universes suspended halfway between reality and dream.
