This modern take on a classic nursery rhyme tells the story of two best friends, separated from one another atop Happening Hill, as they struggle to find each other in a world filled with magic and enchanting characters. This production features art and songs composed by local students.
“Jack and Jill are the best of friends, and the whole story hinges on their search for each other in a crazy place. It feels sort of like The Wizard of Oz, it’s really awesome, and the set is going to be insane.” - Charlie Widmer, ‘Jack.’
Each Spring, Salt Marsh Opera stages an exciting production like Jack and Jill and the Happening Hill and brings the magic of opera into local schools. The Kids Love Opera! program exposes students to opera by teaching its history, meaning and etiquette. Talented performers visit schools and present enriching lessons that can be aligned to curriculum and used to facilitate education through enrichment.
