San Francisco Opera has released a series of charming movies adapted from one-hour, family style stage productions, and they're showing for free! Donizetti's Elixir of Love was screened in January, and Mozart's Magic Flute is moving from San Rafael down south to Los Gatos.
Created from the live shows, they provide the magic of opera — beautiful music, costumes, sets, and animal characters — in an accessible and portable film version. This show is a perfect way to introduce your youngest set to opera.
