Bring the whole family out to a FREE musical production, designed just for kids at your local library! Performed by our Studio Artists, join us on the Gulf Coast for a brand new children's opera!
On the Gulf Coast of Florida, Mato–a young bear–is turning two years old. In “bear years,” this means it’s time for him to live on his own. However, Mato has a problem: He can’t remember how to fish! So, he sets off on an adventure, encountering different coastal creatures who eventually teach him that growing up is not always about knowing answers… It’s about asking the right questions. Filled with hummable tunes by Pensacola native Matthew Fossa and featuring a charming libretto by Joshua Borths, this heart-warming opera is a great introduction to students of all ages as they explore how to learn, grow, and become the best version of themselves.
The commission of Mato was made possible by Diane Appleyard.
