  • Hansel & Gretel: The Sticky & Sweet Panto

    Hansel & Gretel, The Sticky & Sweet Panto

    A twisted take on the stickiest fairy tale we could find.

    Hansel and Gretel are siblings who are abandoned in a forest, and due to some rather unfortunate navigation, they fall into the hands of a nasty witch who lives in a gingerbread house. With songs you know and love, hilarious characters, and the silliest of stories, this sugar-laden panto will have you rolling in the aisles!

    Who is this show for?
    As in past years, the Capitol has performances suitable for both the ‘Naughty’, suitable for a mature audience; and the ‘Nice’, suitable for young audiences and families.

    Ok, but what is a Panto?
    Pantomime or panto is a holiday theatre tradition of organized chaotic comedy, with slapstick jokes, songs, and dancing. It’s also highly interactive, making it a joyful experience for artists and audiences alike. Pantos are typically based on fairy tales or legends – familiar tales that can be shaped into
    new stories for today.

    “Pantos are magical – colourful in style, set and language, and just so much fun. Northumberland county takes holiday celebrations seriously, and the panto has become an annual tradition for many folks in the area. We produce an original panto every year, so you’re going to see and hear something new each time.” ~Capitol Artistic Director Rob Kempson.

    How long is the show?
    Run time is approximately 120 minutes.

    "Totally original... Funky as all hell... this ain’t any Kenny G oatmeal for folks with no teeth."
    - Mike Greenblatt, Classicalite (New York, USA)
    ----
    Under the leadership of JUNO-nominated and 10x Global Music Award–winning jazz pianist NICK MACLEAN, SNAGGLE feat the ALI BROS launches into a daring new chapter: a suite of electrifying works inspired by the science fiction grandmaster ISAAC ASIMOV and his legendary FOUNDATION saga. Often described as “Canada’s answer to Snarky Puppy”, the band goes interstellar using their fearless sound, likened to a cross between electric-era Miles Davis and Rage Against the Machine, to map the rise and fall of galactic empires.

    Front and center are the ALI BROS, the near-telepathic horn duo of BROWNMAN ALI (Guru, Jay-Z, Randy Brecker) on trumpet and MARCUS ALI (Matt Dusk, Jason Wilson, Mr Something Something) on saxophone. Like Asimov’s psychohistorians, they shape the future with every phrase, weaving complex probabilities into sonic reality. Joining them on this voyage are some of Toronto’s finest electric-jazz explorers: JAY YOO on guitar, MATT GRUEBNER on bass, and ADAM MANSFIELD on drums. With performances swinging from Seldon–like moments of quiet, calculated clarity to cataclysmic bursts of energy worthy of a crumbling empire... Snaggle’s new repertoire doesn’t just pay homage to ASIMOV, it channels the spirit of his storytelling: daring, complex, and endlessly imaginative. 

    DOC ROCK & the ASSASSINS, the special guest opener, has carved out a reputation as one of Durham Region’s hardest-hitting rock outfits. Blending the grit of classic rock with the energy of modern alternative, the band delivers a live show that is as raw and powerful as it is unforgettable. With deep roots in the local scene, Doc Rock & the Assassins have become a fixture in Ontario venues, sharing stages with a wide range of rock, metal, and alternative acts. Their sound channels the spirit of no-nonsense rock & roll while embracing the high-octane edge that defines Oshawa’s music community.

    For fans of Jazz, Science Fiction, and the BOUNDLESS possibilities that emerge when the two intertwine... this is a show not to be missed!
