Opera at Home! Sounds stuffy. Is Opera at Home really for kids? For everybody?
Opera at Home is soooo for kids and adults too because its interactive. Founder Sherry Boone loves performing classical music for audiences of all ages and has been doing so for many years at places like The Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center here in NYC.
"Kids don't lie" she says "If any artist really wants to know what they are made of, perform for kids.. you'll know right away whether they like ya or not!"
We sing and clown around a bit and then dialog with kids about what we performed for them. We wanna know how kids feel about stuff.
