Brian Sikorski for Opera del Sol
Opera del Sol presents an original opera by Eric Pinder, “Cocaine Bear” at the 2024 Orlando Fringe Festival! If a bear does cocaine in the woods, does anyone hear him? Inspired by a film, loosely based on a true story, we just added singing.

In 1985, a drug smuggler dropped a shipment of cocaine from his plane. It landed in the Chattahoochee–Oconee National Forest, where an American black bear found and ate it. In Cocaine Bear: The Opera, an only moderately dramatized version of events, the aforementioned bear then proceeds to enjoy a drug-fueled rampage filled with murder, mayhem, and Mozart. Cocaine Bear: The Opera is written and directed by Orlando Fringe Festival favorite, veteran director and storyteller, Eric Pinder (Driving Miss Cherry Blossom, Waiting For Napoleon), and also features the extraordinary vocal talent of Maeghin Mueller, David Lee Smith, Jose-Manuel Lopez, Jessica Hoehn, and Christie Duffer. Pinder promises the same “wildly entertaining and darkly hilarious B-movie blood-fest” as the 2023 film – but this time, there’s singing!
