Long Beach Opera’s Education team presents the return of Acquaprofonda in collaboration with the Aquarium of the Pacific — a FREE, family-friendly, half-hour opera adventure about courage, kindness, and protecting our planet.

Italian for “deep water,” Acquaprofonda follows Serena, a fearless girl who lives by the sea, as she discovers a mysterious whale sick from plastic pollution. With the help of a wise sailor, she inspires her father to stand up against the local factory harming the ocean — and learns that one small voice can make big waves.

The performances are FREE with RESERVATIONS. Reservations are recommended but not required. Walk-ups welcome as long as seats are available. Additionally, Aquarium of the Pacific tickets are not needed to attend performances.
