Suggested Backdrops
A large portion of Hansel and Gretel takes place in the woods. TheatreWorld has no shortage of forests for Hansel and Gretel to get lost in! GRAY FULL MOON is cold and slightly spooky--pair with GRAY FULL MOON LEGS to really create a space where the children can wander. CLEARING IN THE WOODS, with its beams of blue moonlight, is another great option--and you can add our INTO THE WOODS LEGS to realistically create that feeling of a dense forest opening up into a clearing. MOONLIT PATHWAY, with its purple shadows and pink glowing sky, is barren and a little otherworldly. For the inside of the witch's cottage, if you don't choose to use set pieces, use OLD WORLD COTTAGE INTERIOR. You'll get lost in TheatreWorld's Hansel and Gretel collection!
