The Dallas Opera brings a live performance of a children’s opera to your afterschool program. This school year, students, faculty, staff, and parents enjoy a live 30-minute performance of The Bremen Town Musicians. The performance will be followed by an interactive Q&A with the director and cast.
About the Opera
Eddie Pensier is a rooster who loves to sing, but his loud songs get him sent away from the farm. On the road to start his new band, he meets Barcarolle the dog, Dorabella the cat, and General Boom the donkey—all animals who feel unwanted and dream of something better. By working together, they become a band and discover that friendship, teamwork, and kindness make any journey easier—and much more fun.
