GALLERY: 'Hansel and Gretel' by the Dewdney Players

The troupe's production of 'Hansel and Gretel' is on until May 11 at the Rotary Arts Performing Centre.

Enjoy a classic fairy tale with Okotoks' local theatre troupe.

Hansel and Gretel, adapted for the Rotary Arts Performing Centre stage by Kelly Kozak, is the latest production by the Dewdney Players.

The play puts a comedic and musical spin on the timeless tale.

"There's a lot more characters in this version, so a lot of kind of intertwining things happening and it's almost like a lot of different worlds colliding," said Kozak, who is responsible for writing and directing the play, along with choreography, costume design and more.

"It's really interesting and we've put a lot of comedic elements into it, a ton of music, some dancing, so it's a visual and audio feast."

Hansel and Gretel shows are happening May 3, 4, 9, 10 and 11 at 7:30 p.m., with additional 2 p.m. matinees on the May 4 and 11.

Get tickets on Showpass.
