Pamplemousse the grapefruit is upset. And lonely.

His mouse neighbours aren’t very friendly unless he’s crying sweet juicy tears and what makes it worse is he can’t squeeze through their mousehole to try to get to know them. Will he ever find someone who likes him just as he is?

Join us for the heartening tale of Pamplemousse’s identity crisis, set against evocative and playful music by local composer Greg Caffrey. The opera will be performed by the NI Opera Studio and the Hard Rain Soloist Ensemble with instruments ranging from a harp to a vibraphone, fantastic costumes and set not to mention the cast of singing mice and fruit! This will be an experience the children will not forget.

Suitable for children 7+ Duration: 30 minutes

Free music and craft workshop for children and parents for 1 hour before each performance: please confirm with your chosen venue that you would like to attend.

Schools and youth groups, contact j.wiemers@niopera.com for information on extra resources.
