HSG~ Rogue Opera: Opera in the Schools presents "Pinocchio"

Rogue Opera: Opera in the Schools presents "Pinocchio"


As part of the Rogue Opera’s 26th season of Opera in the Schools, featuring a production of Pinocchio by John Davies. This original rendition of the beloved folk tale encourages children to tell the truth to adults they trust, while exposing them to the works from the operas of Mozart, Donizetti, Offenbach and Pergolesi. Our protagonist, Pinocchio is persuaded to skip school and meet with the evil puppeteer, Dr. Dulcamara. When Dr. Dulcamara flies into a fit of rage, Pinocchio escapes and returns home, where he asks for his father’s forgiveness. With the help of his father and the authorities, Pinocchio runs the bad guys out of town.

Homeschool families are invited to a Tuesday, November 1st performance at 10am in Medford (exact location TBA). To RSVP for this performance, please email Tika Weeks at hsgathering@gmail.com with your first and last name, phone number and number attending.

Thanks,
Tika Weeks
