Description

The Opera Group/ROH2 at the Royal Opera House/Young Vic
London, England


Once Upon a Time, three princesses unlocked a secret door... and opened a grand adventure.

In this off-beat and funny fairytale of an opera, beauty meets the beast once again when Princess Flora, the youngest of three gangly, gum-chewing sisters, learns her betrothed is a boar. Swept off to the north, she discovers (of course!) that her hoggy hubby is hexed and only she can break the spell. Follow Flora from palace to pigsty in this twisty tale of mud and marriage. Sometimes, a girl's just gotta go out and rescue the prince for herself.

"Rip-roaring entertainment, plain and simple ... [Composer Jonathan] Dove is the wizard of contemporary children's opera."
The Times (London)
