Composed in the years leading up to WWII and performed by the children of the Terezín concentration camp, Brundibár is a timeless musical fable of innocence triumphing over evil. Sung in English, this production features projected English super titles, and serves as a perfect introduction to opera. Brundibar is presented by the Sacramento Children’ s Chorus and Sacramento Youth Symphony, with production support by the Sacramento Opera. In collaboration with the Central Valley Holocaust Educators’ Network and the Jewish Community Relations Council.
Featuring a special guest appearance by original Terezín cast member, Ela Stein Weissberger.
