Ravel\u0027s The Child and the Enchantments | Opera

A young, mischievous child,
Toys and household objects in rebellion,
A one-act fantasy.

As their inaugural production, Opera Box is proud to present Ravel’s surreal one-act opera. Expect the unexpected with Opera Box’s post-Christmas take on Ravel’s The Child and the Enchantments, in which a young mind journeys from chaos to understanding.

Clocking in at just one hour, with reduced orchestration, and performed in English by some of Hong Kong’s most exciting voices, Opera Box strips The Child and the Enchantments to its essence, highlighting the tension between innocence and maturity. An opera to celebrate what has past and to welcome new beginnings. Suitable for both the opera-loving and the opera-curious.
