Scottish Opera’s hugely popular pop-up show is coming to Dundee this weekend.
The touring group is back with three brilliant half-hour shows for audiences of all ages.
The team will be taking over Mary Slessor Gardens on Saturday and Sunday.
They will be putting on three separate half-hour shows starting at noon each day.
A spokesman for the company said: “Experience all the drama and wonder of grand opera on a miniature scale, with intimate open-air performances brought to life by a storyteller, two singers, instrumentalists – and a sumptuous set of specially created illustrations.
Our shows this year include two cleverly rewritten versions of Rossini’s and Mozart’s classic comedies – The Barber of Seville and The Marriage of Figaro.
“Both follow the adventures of one of opera's most beloved characters – the mischievous Figaro. The third mini opera, Be a Sport, Spike! , is a Scottish Opera original for 4 to 8 year olds.”
Older audiences can enjoy the complete stories of Figaro - Seville’s most famous barber and a man with a plan for every occasion.
While children will enjoy the story of Mike ‘The Spike’ McTavish – the greatest sportsman the world has ever seen. There’s no-one who can run faster, jump higher or swim further than mega-fit Spike. But there is one thing that he can’t do - sing.
Join Mike and his pals as he starts to exercise those vocal cords and finds out that a little perseverance can go a long way.
