Pocket Opera is a theater of the mind and of the heart. It presents professional performances of operatic works in intimate, intelligible productions at affordable prices. 

Donald Pippin's approach to opera is to tell the story in the clearest manner possible.  With Pocket Opera presentations it is really possible to know the plot of the opera on the way home. Pippin brings the story to life via his nationally recognized English versions of opera libretti, in which he translates the spirit of the work rather than word by word, with complete fidelity to the composer's musical intentions.
