On November 7 and 8, 2026, Sarasota Youth Opera will present Rachel J. Peters’ one-act opera Rootabaga Country, a whimsical journey of imagination, family, and self-discovery based on Carl Sandburg’s 1922 book, Rootabaga Stories. Since its inception in 1984, the Youth Opera Program at Sarasota Opera has become a national model for opera education, offering instruction from noted professionals in the opera industry and participation in main stage opera productions, concerts, and summer programs. Each year, the Sarasota Youth Opera presents a fully staged production with Sarasota Opera’s world class orchestra, sets, and costumes, with Youth Opera members aged 8-18 performing alongside professional artists.
