Introduce your kids to the fun of opera as Orchestra Miami proudly presents Jack & the Beanstalk, an operatic version of the Old English fairy tale by John Davies. This hysterically funny take on the beloved tale features an adventuresome boy, his mother, a giant and his long-suffering wife, a golden hen, and magical beans! This fully staged performance features Josue Brizuela as Jack, Johan Hartman as The Giant, Isabel Breakey as The Giant’s wife, Ravenna Maer as Mrs. Nimble (Jack’s mom) and Christopher Dreeson as The Narrator/Trouble Man. The opera is fully staged by award winning director Ricky J. Martinez and accompanied by Orchestra Miami’s Artistic Director Elaine Rinaldi at the piano.

Full of laughter and surprises, this entertaining opera reminds kids of one of childhood’s most important lessons- treat others as you would like to be treated!
