**Early Bird Special is $790! Reserve by May 15th for Fall 2017 and by October 15 for Spring 2018. After the above dates, the rate rises to $850.
Opera for the Young’s adaptation of Rusalka moves the setting from forest glen to coral reef, where Rusalka yearns to become human because she’s in love with the Prince. Rusalka’s father, the Sea King, warns her about people, but the mermaid goes to the Sea Witch for a magic spell. Rusalka exchanges her fish tail for legs at a price: she won’t be understood by humans (except for the audience). This proves to be a challenging barrier for the Prince who, after bringing Rusalka to his castle, is pursued by a Foreign Princess (the Sea Witch in disguise).
Complications abound, aided and untangled by Creatures of the Reef, portrayed by sixteen of your students.
Understanding and accepting difference is a powerful subject highlighted in a tale of magical romance, loss, and the redemptive power of love set to the gorgeous music by Dvořák.
