Program Details
All ages are welcome to attend Des Moines Metro Opera's free performance at the Library of The Billy Goats Gruff.
The show takes a familiar tale and adds a fun operatic twist with a strong anti-bullying message. On the way home from school, three little billy goats encounter a steep bridge, a mean troll and a sticky situation that they must try to solve—and all set to some of the greatest classical music by Mozart, Rossini and Donizetti!
Presented in partnership with Ames Public Library and the Ames Chapter of the Des Moines Metro Opera Guild. Supported in part through local option tax funds provided by the City of Ames through the Commission on the Arts and by the Ames Public Library Friends Foundation.
