An immersive theatrical installation turns Grimm Brothers’ Hansel and Gretel into a personal experience
Galbiati adds that the aim of h.g. is not to faithfully recount the fairy tale, but evoke some archetypes.
A story about a wicked witch, who lives in a candy cottage, and two children wandering lost in the woods, Hansel and Gretel, will meet your personal nightmares in a theatrical production that is travelling through India this month and next. Titled h.g., it has been created by Switzerland-based company, Trickster-p, and requires audience members to travel alone through nine designed rooms wearing headphones while the major themes of the fairy tale — sounds and silences, bones and flesh, food and hunger — play out. Presented by Sandbox Collective and supported by Pro Helvetia, the Swiss Arts Council, h.g. will be staged in Delhi, Pondicherry, Chennai and Bengaluru.
