Peter & the Wolf (Pedro y el Lobo)

GINASTERA Four Dances from Estancia, Op. 8a
PROKOFIEV Peter and the Wolf
Bring the whole family for this special bilingual production of Prokofiev’s symphonic tale for children at the Lobero Theatre, conducted by César Cañón, with a vaudeville-inspired production by Really Inventive Stuff, directed by Sara Valentine with acting and narration in English by Michael Boudewyns, joined by local performer Luis Moreno narrating in Spanish.
A young boy named Peter (strings) disobeys his grandfather (bassoon) and climbs over the garden wall. Along the way he meets some friends – a bird (flute), a duck (oboe), and a cat (clarinet) – and encounters a wolf (French horn); with quick thinking – will Peter save the day?
