Changes: Hansel and Gretel

Revision as of 21:44, 11 August 2006

Hansel and Gretel is a classic children's tale, by the Brothers Grimm, of a brother and sister who get lost in the woods and encounter an evil witch. It has been parodied multiple times in Muppet productions.

In 1958, following a sojourn in Europe, Jim Henson designed elaborate sets and built puppets for a Hansel and Gretel stage show, working in a more traditional puppetry style. The project was ultimately abandoned.

The 1965 industrial film Shrinkel and Stretchel spoofed the story, with Taminella Grinderfall as the witch.

Muppet Magazine issue 15 featured Rizzo and Yolanda as the duo.

Sesame Street has featured the pair in multiple episodes.

Kermit and Piggy appeared as the brother and sister in Muppet Babies' Classic Children's Tales
