“A production by the Michigan Opera Theatre Children’s Chorus, it reset the work (based on an Oscar Wilde story) in contemporary Detroit, without doing any damage to the lithe score or the delicate storyline. …in a clear staging by Michael Yashinsky, the work had a joyful presentation.” —Opera (November 2014) on The Happy Prince at the Detroit Opera House
