Children’s opera is wonderful for so many reasons: outreach and audience-building, publicity, grant-writing, opportunities for young singers to perform short roles … if you’re part of a summer workshop, YAP, or education branch of an opera company, you’re probably regularly looking for options. Opera Tales are written by singer and director John Davies, based on classic fairy tales like Little Red Riding Hood and The Bremen Town Musicians, with music drawn from a wide variety of operas. With small casts, minimal production needs, and modest royalties, they’re ideal for touring.
