The odd proportions of the Oakland Opera Theater’s scrappy new all-Stravinsky double bill begin to make perfect sense once you think in culinary terms. The show, which opened over the weekend in the company’s bare-bones warehouse space near Jack London Square, comprises a 70-minute main course followed after intermission by a quick 25-minute dessert.
