On Friday 1 December, the 15th edition of Opera kids debuted at the Teatro Sociale in Como.

Imagine…

The Great Wall of China, peach blossoms on the ground, burning lanterns and a curse…

An evil witch has enchanted Princess Turandot’s heart by freezing it.

Several suitors challenge the icy soul of the sovereign to win her hand.

But it’s not that simple: the princess presents each one with three riddles, and whoever doesn’t solve them… ZAC! Head cut off

First with the schools and then, on Saturday, with the families, each child helped the Tartar prince Calaf to solve the riddles and break the curse. Together with them, he also sang the famous aria ‘Nessun dorma‘.

And now the tour is starting, both the school performances and those open to families!
