"Earth to Kenzie" presented by the Se...
Description
Kenzie is a fifth grader with a vivid imagination and a taste for adventure. But when her home is threatened, sending her to a family shelter with her mother, her world is thrown into a newfound state of uncertainty. Faced with unwelcome questions at school, Kenzie yearns to disappear into her favorite video game—a world where the possibilities are endless and her only concern is wrangling space-kittens—but her asthma reminds her that life isn’t all starships and spacesuits. To find her home, Kenzie first has to face her fears—and realize that she’s not alone after all. This one-act opera explores themes of empathy and finding strength despite adversity. The fully staged and costumed opera is performed with professional singers and live piano accompaniment. This production is appropriate for all ages, especially families with children. Children ages 2 and under that can sit on a lap. Each performance includes family activities before and after the show as well as a brief Q&A with the cast after the opera. Approximate length of performance: 1 hour total, including a 45-minute performance and post-show Q&A.
