About this Event
Using live opera moments, participants of all ages are invited to listen, imagine, and explore what it means to bring a story to life on stage. Working together, you’ll make creative choices and develop stage directions inspired by the music, combining elements of music, drama, and leadership along the way.
Share your ideas, discover what others imagine, and watch as a professional opera singer brings your creative choices to life before your very eyes!
