This is turning into my winter of opera. First I was surprised to find The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs is not only a good opera, but also an enjoyable one and ended up buying tickets to see it again. Then I discovered the same thing about Seattle Opera’s youth performance Ulysses.

Expensive tickets, long run times, foreign languages, and a reputation for elitism – not to mention a propensity for wildly inappropriate story lines – makes opera a hard sell for families. Seattle area families have an advantage, though. The Youth Opera Project’s affordable opera designed expressly for children and families is a great way to test the opera waters.
