Written in 2002, Dreaming Blue is the story of a child brought by family into a new culture. Unable to speak the language and not yet able to identify with the surroundings, this child is lonely – just plain lonely and just plain blue. Faced with the need to find a new way of feeling anchored, the child responds creatively to life. The opera began with the words and images of a group of students from Mountain View Elementary School. The children were asked to imagine being their favourite colour, and it was out of their writings and drawings that the characters of the opera emerged.
