Peggy - we did Hansel and Gretel as an operetta in my school (K-12
participated) when I was in - grade school (second grade, I think). Mostly I
remember the colorful costume and dancing in a circle while singing on
stage. My first intro to the stage and I loved it.

Anyway, for next semester we are to consider something from musical theater
and I wondered if this part would be one to consider. Peggy - do you know if
it would be possible to purchase that score anywhere? If you could give me
any information on the music I'd be willing to try and find it - of course,
always open to suggestion. I'm a mezzo.
