The Magic Flute (1791) (Die Zauberflote), an opera by W.A. Mozart

Mozart’s masterpiece The Magic Flute is one of the most performed operas in the world. Its divine music and magical story full of twists and turns have endeared this opera to a public of all ages since it debuted in 1791. Mozart’s most tuneful, charming and magical child-friendly opera, in a brand new celtic-flavoured production!. With live musicians, wonderful young singers and some of the most beautiful music ever written, this will be an extraordinary event.

Sung in German, with projected English translations and English dialogue. Fully-staged and costumed and accompanied by piano, flute and cello.
