Gold!

Shoes, a house, a castle with servants, a palm beach, endless pizza and fries. And yet, little Jacob and his parents feel as if everything could be much more beautiful, bigger, and even better. "Go, Jacob, run to the beach!" After all, he saved the fish's life. "Fish in the sea, give me the whole world, just for the three of us," sings Jacob! Everything glitters! Only, the sea becomes wilder and the fish grows thinner, until the high waves swallow up all the wealth once more.

Inspired by the fairy tale “The Fisherman and His Wife,” author Flora Verbrugge and composer Leonard Evers have created a poetic and profound children's opera about happiness. A percussionist and a singer perform and sing this captivating musical theater for our young audience.
