Review: Hansel & Gretel @ Southbank Centre
The glut of seasonal theatrical entertainment for children is almost at an end. Ostensibly a morality tale which boils down to "don't talk to strangers offering sweets, even if those sweets are literally the size of a house", KneeHigh have gone all Roald Dahl by stuffing their adaptation with macabre overtones, clever contraptions, a larger-than-life villain and precocious children.
