HANDEL’S ISLAND
a Sensory Baby Opera
Following the success of Figaro's Garden last year, Opera Box is excited to bring Handel's Island to the HKU Black Box Theatre! Specially designed for babies and toddlers, this immersive opera experience is created by professional opera singers, using simple props and interactive movements to introduce little ones to the magical world of Handel's music. As part of Opera Box's groundbreaking O!Blox series, Handel's Island combines the magic of Baroque opera with early childhood enrichment, offering a unique and engaging experience for both children and their caregivers.
🍃 For ages 0-3 years
This event is proudly supported by Tom Lee, Plaza Premium Group, KS Sze & Sons and Baumhaus, and once again features a special Classical performance by musical theatre star Crisel Consunji!

Introducing…O!BLOX by Opera Box! The “child” branch of Opera Box specializes in sensory explorations of operatic music, imagination and the communicative nature of babies via simple props, movement and engagement by real opera singers. This immersive experience will allow toddlers and their minders to enjoy beautiful opera music while having the freedom to express and explore.
Our first baby opera in Hong Kong, “Figaro’s Garden” met with great success. Watch this space for our next baby show (coming this Spring!).
