The Children's Opera "The Three Feathers" will be performed on Friday, October 17th and Saturday, October 18th at 7:30 pm and on Saturday, October 18th and Sunday, October 19th at 2 pm at the Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech. In collaboration with Virginia Tech School of Performing Arts, Opera Roanoke, and the Blacksburg Children's Chorale, “The Three Feathers” is a new one-act children’s opera commissioned from composer Lori Laitman by the Center for the Arts at Virginia Tech, which will celebrate its world premiere at the Moss Arts Center. Based on a Grimm’s fairytale and brilliantly retold by librettist Dana Gioia, “The Three Feathers” creates a mysterious world inhabited by a king, his three princess daughters, and courtiers; and the fantastical underworld kingdom of the Frog Prince and his chorus of rats, bats, and frogs. Recommended for ages six years and older. For more information, visit: https://www.artscenter.vt.edu/Online/threefeathers or contact Shana Buzzard at centerforthearts@vt.edu or 540-231-5300. |
