Boulder Opera presents Puss in Boots: This is the perfect introduction to opera for the whole family with the beloved fairytale of “Puss in Boots,” or “Gato con Botas.” The story is Xavier Montsalvatge’s version of an ingenious and quick-witted feline with magical talents. Can Puss win the princess’ hand for his master? Will he outwit the evil ogre? This is a one-hour performance, followed by a Q&A with the cast and is sung in Spanish with English subtitles.
