A feisty and delicious take on this classic fairy tale. In this version, Willow - the good witch and owner of the tasty house - is minding her own business when two naughty, rude children start to try her patience. Mischievous Hansel and Gretel turn the good witch's house upside down in this reimagining of the classic fairy tale. There is a darker element to the conclusion, but the wry humor and alternative perspective are enjoyable.
