All School Performance

Based on the Metropolitan Opera's curriculum, Creating Original Opera, students create an original play, with music. Written to be used by a single classroom of approximately 25 students, we have adapted this standards conscious curriculum to accommodate all 70+ of our Kindergarten through eighth grade students.  With the guidance of adult facilitators, students write the script, lyrics and music; design and build the sets and costumes; perform; stage manage and crew for the entire performance. Once the curtain rises, no adults are telling students what to do, where to be, or when to be there. They have the responsibility to play their roles, play the music, operate the lighting, change the scenery, and all other aspects of the performance.
