Opera Orlando studio artists take the show on the road this season with a touring education and outreach production of this 40-minute children’s opera about Mariana, a young girl in Mexico who forms an unexpected friendship with the artist Frida Kahlo. While Frida paints her portrait, Mariana learns about friendship, belief in oneself, and overcoming her fears.
