Opera Carolina is presenting a family opera, The Tortoise and the Hare, for audiences in Gastonia and Concord. The performances are free, but you do need to reservations to guarantee your spot.
Our less-than-humble Hare has just won another race when the Tortoise speaks up that she wants to join the track team. After he tells her that she can’t be on the team because she’s a turtle, our tenacious Tortoise challenges the Hare to a race for her place on the team. Will sheer speed take the lead or will slow and steady determination win the race?
