Hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to the dark side of the story we go.

Overview

Get up close and personal to one of the world's most famous fairy tales, but don't expect it to play out the way you expect. You don't take on Snow White and call it a gripping reimagining without shaking things up — and in this case, it's the boundaries between good and evil.

In La Boite Theatre Company and Opera Queensland's take on the Brothers Grimm's tale, showing at this year's Brisbane Festival, four musicians and four singer/actors do more than just ask magic mirrors about their appearance; they sing everything from opera to rock, and find the sensual heart inside an enduring classic. Hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to the dark side of the story we go. And no, this version definitely isn't for kids.
