The Three Little Pigs @ Fretz Park Library
Johnny stars as Don Giovanni in The Dallas Opera’s production of the Three Little Pigs.
Bridging together Opera and the classic children's literature, the Dallas Opera will bring out their traveling "Opera Truck" for a special mini-operatic performance of "The Three Little Pigs"!
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.
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!
