L’Enfant et les Sortilèges (The Bewitched Child)

Tuesday, August 8 & Wednesday, August 9
6:30PM
McKnight Hall 

In Ravel’s magical score, an unruly child is confronted by all the objects in their world that have suddenly come to life: including the wallpaper, furniture, and tea set! A fantasy-meditation on our relationship to nature and the world, L’enfant is a musical adventure in a compact one-act.

Lyrics by Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette
