Family Opera: My Head is Full of Colors – An Opera for All Ages
Saturday March 12, 11am and 1pm
Audiences of all ages are invited to two FREE matinee performances of the one-act opera: My Head is Full of Colors.
Please see important admission and COVID-19 requirements below.
Maria awakes one morning to find her normally plain brown hair replaced by all the colors of the rainbow. Her head is “full of colors,” and on this day she draws and paints like never before. Each day she wakes up with something unexpected on her head and experiences the world in new and different ways. Her father welcomes her surprising appearance with loving arms and fascinated observation. My Head is Full of Colors is a life-affirming self-esteem lesson that ignites imagination and reflects the joys of life and learning.
Composed by Chris Pratorius Gómez.
Libretto by Nicole Paiement.
Based on the children’s book by Catherine Friend.
UC Santa Cruz singers perform.
Directed by Sheila Willey.
Conducted by Michael Blackburn.
