Join us for free performances of our 2024 touring production, Monkey and Francine in the City of Tigers. This 45-minute opera for youth audiences fuses together folktales from around the world to tell the story of Monkey and his brainy sister, Francine. The siblings must learn to cooperate to escape a hungry crocodile and outwit the greedy Lord of the Tigers. Combining multiple styles of music from Bollywood, Ethiopian jazz, Latin, and classical, this opera shares the timeless message that we all have different strengths, but when we work together, anything is possible.
This production is appropriate for all ages, especially families with children. Audience members should bring their own chairs or blankets.
