This interactive show was a new operatic and theatrical version of the myth of Orpheus from Monteverdi’s opera Orfeo with additional music by Rachel Leach. It involved music, puppetry, song and dance, performed by singers, players and actors from English Touring Opera and Wonderful Beast. Children learnt songs in advance and joined in the action.
In collaboration with English Touring Opera’s outreach programme. A national tour of thirty primary schools, including three family shows in Lincoln, Aldeburgh and Ulverston.
