OPERA FOR YOUNG AUDIENCES

A fresh take on the Cinderella story, for the young and young at heart.

November 28 to December 2, 2018

New English Libretto by Joel Ivany
Musical Adaptation by Stéphane Mayer
Commissioned by the Canadian Opera Company

Performances take place at the Imperial Oil Opera Theatre in the Joey and Toby Tanenbaum Opera Centre, 227 Front St. E., Toronto, ON

When the hit singing show WOW Factor arrives at Cindy’s school, students jump at the chance to compete for the top prize – especially with pop sensation Lil’ Charm rumoured to be there. Shy Cindy dreams of sharing her talents with the world but friends become mean girls when she steps into the spotlight. Driven by her desire to sing, and with a bit of help from a reluctant pop star and his sidekick, can Cindy overcome her fears to find her own unique voice?

Suitable for young people ages 5 and up (or grades 1 to 6).
The opera is sung in English and is approximately 50 minutes in length, followed by a 10-minute Q&A with the cast and crew.

A relaxed performance for young people who might benefit from a performance with a more relaxed sensory experience is available on December 2, 2018 at 11 a.m.
