Opera New England
Finally, an opera for kids that’s a cut above the rest!
The legendary barber Figaro uses every trick in the book to free the lovely Rosina from the clutches of crotchety Dr. Bartolo and unite her with the dashing Count Almaviva. Engage your students with the magic, the music, and (yes!) the fun of this ultimate art form – opera combines the very best of music, theatre, dance, and visual artistry. Not only will they thank you, they’ll have a fantastic time…and so will you!
