Sisters students offer 'Hansel and Gretel'

Swine Productions of Sisters will present the play "Hansel and Gretel" Thursday, February 6, at 7 p.m. at the Sisters Elementary School Commons.

Now in its 24th year, Swine Productions' current cast members include Mr. Benton's third-grade class at Sisters Elementary School.

The class has been rehearsing since early January and is ready for its schoolwide and public performances. Students have been learning to project their voices and block positions on stage -- all while doing their reading homework at the same time.

The three-act play "Hansel and Gretel," based on the Humperdinck operetta, was first performed in 1893. The performance also features music from the children's operetta.

"This ageless classic is one that can be enjoyed by children of all ages," said Swine Productions Director Benton.

Admission is just 25 cents for all ages, accepted at the door.

"Everyone in the community, regardless if they have a child in school, is more than welcome to attend" said Benton.

For more information call Sisters Elementary School, 549-8981.
