We had a marvelous time - JediBoy’s naturally dour expression aside - at the opera today! It was a wonderful experience, a short 40-minute program full of laughter and song. There were enough speaking parts that the kids could easily follow the story, and some wonderfully funny moments of Pig-and-Wolf drama set to familiar passages from Mozart operas. The kids all seemed to enjoy it, and BabyGirl was held absolutely spellbound, sitting perfectly still on my lap to watch the entire performance. She seemed to be able to recognize a bit of the Three Little Pigs story we’ve been telling all week.
The kids even got to chat with - and post with - the four-person cast after the show.
After the opera, JediBoy asked to go out to eat, since we were all dressed up anyway. What’s better than an opera and some ice cream? What a beautiful day.
