Hillary the Witch wins tickets to a performance at The Göteborg Opera, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary. She has no idea what “opera” is and searches for the word. It appears to be something in which people are constantly singing. Hillary conjures up the singer Maria Bellacanta, who takes us and the witch on a journey into the magical world of opera. Pieces from Die Zauberflöte, Die Fledermaus, Hänsel und Gretel and other well-known operas and operettas that have been performed at the Göteborg Opera over the years are woven into the story. Hillary asks lots of questions, which Bellacanta is happy to answer – sometimes with the help of Mus-iker the Mouse.
