Plot

It took the courage of a local school and the direction of a dedicated music teacher to do the impossible: in just three months, convert a class of untried 10-year-olds into courageous opera tenors and sopranos, who, with the accompaniment of a full orchestra, perform Rossini's "The Barber of Seville" on the stage. The magical music score enhances the film as it follows the often funny adventure from its conception, through rehearsals, production, and the aftermath.—Art Makosinski

It took the courage of a school and the direction of a dedicated music teacher to do the impossible: in just three months, convert a class of untried 10-year-olds into courageous opera tenors and sopranos, who, with the accompaniment of a full orchestra, belt out Rossinis The Barber of Seville on the stage of the Royal Theater in Victoria, BC. The magical music score enchances the film as it follows the often funny adventure from its conception, through rehearsals, production, and the aftermath.
