Presented by OperaHub, El Gato con Botas is a touring all-ages Spanish opera. The production is conceived by music director Lina Marcela Gonzalez and stage director Roxanna Myhrum as a genre-blending work of beautiful and antic music, comic physical performances, and fantastical puppetry that will be dramatically accessible for people of all ages and language backgrounds, while celebrating the rich Spanish-language opera tradition. Through the character of El Gato, this piece explores the themes of wealth inequality and inventing one’s own future with ingenuity and fabulous shoes.
