Opera Theater of Saint Louis: Opera on the Go! Marriage of Figaro November 5, 2010

Opera on the Go! seeks to connect the dots for kids who may not realize they already love the fundamental elements of opera. The Opera Theatre of Saint Louis offers this interactive introduction to the fantastic world of opera through mini-workshops. Participants see that by applying make-up a singer transforms into character. They get a peek behind the curtain to learn there's as much action backstage as on stage. And Opera on the Go! helps kids identify with the music, by insightfully highlighting that the same themes kids find engaging in pop music abound in opera.
