The Tulsa Opera brought a twenty minute version of “Hansel and Gretel” to SuperPizzaBoy’s school last week. SPB’s class participated as the chorus. They played children (that role came natural to them), then as gingerbread cookies, and back to children. The kids loved it and did a great job. They have been practicing for some time.
Gretel was a soprano, Hansel was played by a woman mezzo soprano. The Opera Company brought four singers and a piano player. They barnstorm all over eastern Oklahoma and Western Arkansas putting short versions of popular operas on for school kids. They do a great job.
I would have loved to hear “Hansel and Gretel, Yogi! Thanks for commenting at My World post! 🙂
