GOOD STORIES + GOOD MUSIC = OPERA FUN FOR ALL AGES!
Three Singing Pigs, a (Big, Bad) Wolf, and Reading Saves the Day!
True to the classic tale, our three little pigs prepare to build their separate houses to withstand an impending visit by the hungry wolf. Only this time, the pigs are named for famous characters in Mozart operas (Despina, Cherubino, and Don Giovanni!) and they sing their little hearts out as they debate the merits of straw, sticks, and brick as building materials. (Spoiler alert—Despina prevails because of a research trip to the library!)
This English-language, 30-minute mini-opera is perfect for young attention spans, a delightful introduction to how music can make a beloved story come alive—and with a message that reading solves all sorts of problems!
