Last summer, Toi Toi Opera's family opera performances at The Arts Centre attracted approximately 1,500 tamariki and whānau who experienced opera for free in an accessible and relevant environment - many for the very first time.This February we're bringing back the magic, this time with an operatic version of The Billy Goats Gruff by John Davies, with music based on scenes from the operas of Mozart, Donizetti, and Rossini.
An after-school game of hide and seek is ruined for three little goat friends when a big bully blocks a bridge, preventing them from being able to go home. Using what they’ve learned about bullies from their mums, dads, and teachers, the trio prevails - teaching a very forlorn (and now rather soggy!) ex-bully an important lesson about forgiveness and friendship.
A perfect introduction to the world of opera for the littlies in your life, proving that nothing is more contagious than kindness. Join Toi Toi Opera's stunning all-local cast and creative team for one of their two free performances in the North Quad (or The Great Hall, if wet).
