Stewartry youngsters to be given a fright by Scottish Opera
19.01.2023 - 16:25 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Stewartry youngsters are in for a fright – thanks to Scottish Opera.
Their primary schools production, The Curse of MacCabbra Opera House, will be coming to the district in March.
A chilling tale with a good dose of comedy, The Curse of MacCabbra Opera House features music from composer Alan Penman and lyrics from writer and director Johnny McKnight.
Children will enjoy a workshop with Scottish Opera’s team of musicians, singers and drama specialists before they put on the show – complete with costumes.
Springholm, Lochrutton and Hardgate Primaries will experience the fun on March 13, with Crossmichael, Gelston, Dalry and Kells kids taking to the stage the following day.
And on March 15 it- will be the turn of Kirkgunzeon, Palnackie, Colvend, Borgue and Auchencairn Primaries.
Scottish Opera’s director of education and outreach Jane Davidson, said: “The Curse of MacCabbra Opera House gives pupils the opportunity to explore many other front of house and backstage activities that are an essential part of creating a successful show, making Scottish Opera’s primary tour one of the most integrated cross curricular learning experiences in the school calendar.
“We’re thrilled to the bone to introduce this creepy and kooky opera to second level pupils across the country.
“Located in a gloomy Highland glen, the long forgotten MacCabbra Opera House’s doors are creaking open once more to welcome a new generation of young performers.
“Come up with us if you dare; meet the mysterious Madame Dee Parton and the cast and company of the opera as they race to stage a new opera before the sun comes up.”
