THE CHILD AND THE SPELLS
Opera de Tenerife presents the Family Opera L'enfant et les sortilèges (The Child and the Spells) by Maurice Ravel.
This season's Opera en Familia initiative is based in a country house in Normandy, home to a rebellious child who is scolded by his mother for not doing his homework. Then, the child destroys his room and mistreats the animals in it, causing them all to come to life.
