'Carmen and the Bull' Children's Opera at Union Avenue Opera

On Saturday, May 14th, join in the fun as a singing, dancing, traveling gypsy befriends a little bull, his mom and most unlikely of all—a bullfighter! Using the music from the opera Carmen, and loosely based on the beloved story Ferdinand the Bull, Union Avenue Opera’s education team delights young and old audiences alike with a new depiction of a timeless theme: Be True To Yourself. As it turns out, when Ferdinand is the best version of himself, good things happen to everyone involved!

Carmen and the Bull was created by Elise LaBarge (Ferdinand’s mom) with a lot of help from Anthony Heinemann (Ferdinand), Debra Hillabrand (Carmen), Robert Reed (Bullfighter) and Scott Schoonover (Piano).

Suitable for audiences of all ages.

When: Saturday, May 14th, 2:00pm (Doors open 1:30pm)
Where: Union Avenue Opera; 733 N. Union Blvd; St. Louis, 63108
Tickets: $5 general seating. All tickets sold at the door for this event.
