The Coyotes & The Rabbits by Héctor Armienta is a one-act bilingual opera inspired by a Mexican Folk tale. Join the Chiquita Banana Sisters in a whimsical adventure where mischief meets life lessons! When Scrawny Coyote discovers that reading is just as important as hunting, he gets tangled up in the sisters' playful tricks against his cousin, Loco Coyote. Dive into this enchanting production that celebrates creativity, friendship, and the power of knowledge—perfect for audiences of all ages! Produced in partnership with San Jose-based Ópera Cultura.
