Elizabeth Askren will conduct a new production and the season opening performance at the Hawaii Opera Theatre on October 14 and 16. She will conduct the operatic telling of one of literature’s most beloved children’s stories, The Secret Garden, by composer Nolan Gasser and librettist Carey Harrison. Directed by Karen Tiller, the cast is headed up by soprano Laura Corina Sanders in her HOT debut and rising local talent, tenor Taka Komagata. The production is the same traditional story you love but set in a tropical Hawaiian oasis.
