Naomi's Road is the wonderful opera adaptation of Joy Kogawa's
children's novel Naomi's Road, based on her adult novel
Obasan.   I wrote a review
for the opening weekend back on September 30, Oct 1, 2005.  It is
an incredible production that is designed to tour schools throughout
BC.  Last week I spoke to Vancouver Opera general manager Jamese
Wright, who told me enthusiastically that Naomi's Road is travelling to
Seattle, and hopefully to Ottawa.
