An original story about high school told through Mozart operas in collaboration with Vermont Youth Orchestra.
Experience the drama of 1950s high school life through the timeless music of Mozart! Our talented 8-member Youth Opera cast brings you a new mini-opera based on beloved scenes from Le nozze di Figaro, The Magic Flute, Così fan tutte, Don Giovanni, and La Clemenza di Tito.
For our April 11 performance, we're thrilled to partner with the Vermont Youth Orchestra, which has assembled a 15-member chamber orchestra under the direction of VYO Music Director Dr. Mark Alpizar for this program! "Dear Diary" was written and staged by YOC Director Sarah Cullins and coached by YOC Music Director Mary Jane Austin. Its cast of young singers represent five Vermont high schools: Middlebury Union, Mt. Abraham Union, Harwood Union, U32, and Montpelier.
