Doctor Miracle Opera


Center stage of Doctor Miracle


Winspear Opera House

In October we saw  sneak peak at this year's youth performance by the Dallas Opera, Doctor Miracle.  It is a witty  one act opera about a young man's quest to marry his true love, the mayor's daughter.  He disguises himself as a servant who makes a "poison" omelet, and as a doctor who save the family all for the sake of true love. 


Performer Meet n' Greet
Today we went to the lovely Winspear Opera House and saw the performance with several PEACH home school friends. This was the perfect youth opera, mainly because it is just one act and only 45 minutes in length, and because it is in English.   I would love to do a back stage tour of the theater one day.  It is absolutely beautiful  from the white gold that surrounds the theater to the ceiling lights that emulate constellations seen from the Hubble telescope.
You have forgotten God your Savior;
you have not remembered the Rock, your fortress.

Therefore, though you set out the finest plants

and plant imported vines,

. . . .yet the harvest will be as nothing

in the day of disease and incurable pain.

Isaiah 17:10-11
