It's going to be a Gert lush* Christmas!
We are delighted to announce our original family Christmas Show Hansel & Gretel will be heading back to The Tobacco Factory, Bristol for the Festive Season in 2024.
We’re pleased to say the cast features some much loved Bristol based performers whom audiences will recognise from previous NIE/TFT Christmas shows.
Our Co-Artistic Director Alex Byrne (who directs the show) said:
“NIE are really excited to be coming back to Bristol for Christmas this year – because of the lovely space and wonderful audiences, Tobacco Factory Theatres is our favourite place to play. Hansel & Gretel is a glorious mix of music, magic and joy, which we can’t wait to share with TFT audiences!”
Heidi Vaughan, CEO & Artistic Director of Tobacco Factory Theatres, shares our excitement:
“We are thrilled that New International Encounter will co-produce Hansel & Gretel with us this Christmas. NIE are enormously popular with Bristol audiences following their hugely successful main house co-productions in recent years. We can’t wait to welcome the cast and crew of Hansel & Gretel for Christmas 2024/25.”
The show will run in the Tobacco Factory Theatre Main House from Thursday 28th November 2024 to Sunday 12th January 2025, with 11 dedicated performances for school groups.
Tickets available here.
There will be a special 20% off EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT for all tickets purchased before midday on Wednesday 31st July.
If you are interested in bringing a school, or other local group, please contact the theatre directly.
