BOLTON LANDING – The Sembrich brings Seagle Festival to the lakeshore for a live performance of the children’s opera The Three Bears by Jonathan Stinson on Wednesday, July 20 at 10 am.
“We are so excited to collaborate with Seagle Festival to create accessible performances for our youngest audiences,” said Director of Outreach Caleb Eick. “This year’s production of Stinson’s The Three Bears is a humorous new take on the original story that will entertain both children and adults in the audience.”
The production of The Three Bears is approximately 40 minutes long and will be followed by a Q&A session with the audience. The story follows the traditional fairy-tale with the added twist that Goldilocks is a homeless orphan. The show resonates with the principles of equality, fair-treatment, and empathy.
