The Haberdasher Prince
Music by Rosabella Gregory
Words by Dina Gregory
Based on The Haberdasher Prince by Dina Gregory, an Audible Original
The Haberdasher Prince is a new opera for families. In a far-off land, a very musical king has a not-very-musical son. Everyone pretends to enjoy the prince’s terrible concerts, but a bold village girl refuses to play along. The king demands she be punished, but the prince shows mercy. Happily, the prince and the peasant girl devise an arrangement showcasing their true talents.
Presented by Lyric Opera of Kansas City, all performances will be immediately followed by group discussions to foster personal and meaningful connections to the art. Each attendee will receive an activity book inspired by the story to continue engagement at home.
This performance is presented in partnership with Lawrence Arts Center and Mid-America Performing Arts Alliance with special performances by Lawrence Children's Choir and Purnaprajna Bangere. All are welcome.
