Description

Pedro Patê is a boy who is bored by his unusual luck: being the son of two opera singers, he lives within an opera that never ends.

Synopsis

Pedro Patê is a boy who is bored by his unusual luck: being the son of two opera singers, he lives within an opera that never ends, with the background music of an orchestra that punctuates every move he makes. Fed up with this condition and tired of constantly hearing arias, cavatinas, intermezzos, and the like, Pedro Patê dreams of becoming an illusionist and discovering the trick that can silence the singing from the mouths of his family with just a snap of his fingers!

 

After all, in opera, there are no limits to the unexpected!
