We are a touring company comprised of young professional musicians who are dedicated to bringing a love for musicals and operas to today's youth. Our performances are an accessible and affordable way to engage children in the imaginative and educational world of music. We would love to share this year's show with your youth! 

Our upcoming show is Hansel and Gretel, Engelbert Humperdinck’s opera based on the traditional Grimm’s Fairy Tale. This fun-filled show will have your entire school entranced by the magical music and giggling about the evil witch. At only 45 minutes long, Hansel and Gretel’s adventure will bring your students to the edge of their seats, fascinated by the world of opera and musical theater. Our in-school performance is suited for K-8^th and is an accessible and affordable way to engage children in the imaginative and educational world of music.

Our performance runs approximately 45 minutes followed by a 10 minute Q & A session. Your students are also invited to join their voices with the professionals in the opera's final Gingerbread chorus! We bring all our own sets, props, costumes, and talented musicians.
