The Little Black Cat

I can’t wait to write my next opera!

CYO is making a new opera!: a story of courage, a strange journey and…. cats! The finished work will be performed by Cambridge Youth Opera with the Norwich Puppet Theatre. Between October and December 2021 young people aged 11 – 19 will have the opportunity to work with established professionals, including composer Russell Hepplewhite to create the opera. All our activities are open access and free of charge.

I don’t want the show to be over. CYO feels like home.
