Pocket Opera

University Composers premiere pocket sized operas, transforming stories written by local students into new works for the stage, performed by Tri-Cities Opera's resident artists.

Transforming student stories into masterful mini-operas!

The Pocket Opera Project is telling stories with a distinct new voice! Local elementary and middle school students have been selected to have their story submissions transformed into mini-operas — in collaboration with Binghamton University composers.

These incredible “pocket operas” come with big theatrical moments and tell deeply human stories filled with adventure, tragedy, and magic!

K-12 students who would like a chance to see their story transformed into a “pocket opera” in 2027 are encouraged to enter the WSKG Student Writing Competition by May 1, 2026.
