Salada Music Festival's very popular "Opera for Children" will be performed again by popular demand. The program is "The Story of Valemon, King of the White Bears" by Elena Katz-Chernin. This is a story of love and courage in which a brave daughter, Laguna, goes on an adventure to save her king, Valemon, who has been turned into a polar bear by a curse. Three talented singers and a delicate small orchestra including violin, harp and percussion will transform Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre East into a magical world. Children will feel the excitement of the unknown, and adults will be able to return to their pure childhood memories. The production is directed by Tomo Sugao, who is active both in Japan and abroad, and will deliver a visually rich stage performance.
