What is an opera? In this popular interactive program, Opera to Go answers that question by creating vivid characters and exciting stories, with singing. After leading students through the basic elements of opera-arias, duets and recitative, Opera to Go spontaneously composes an opera out of a favorite fairy tale or historical event. The audience is then invited to join in the improvised finale, either as the chorus or on-stage with the cast. This program is especially recommended for the first time Opera to Go visits your school.
