The children's opera, The Muffin Fiend, was written in 1990 and received its first performance in 1991 by Wenona Junior School in Sydney, Australia. Drawing on a number of musical influences, (including Mozart), the music takes cues from Pinkwater's classic children's book of the same name, first published in 1986.
