THE MAGIC FLUTE

The Magic Flute by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is one of the world’s most famous musical stage productions. Tamino, a handsome young prince, finds himself in a magical land between the sun and the moon. He encounters a giant serpent, the evil Queen of the Night, and her daughter, Pamina, who is being held captive by the high priest, Sarastro. With the assistance of Papageno, a comical bird catcher, and other magical characters, Tamino is able to free Pamina; however, both she and Tamino must face the terrifying ordeals and trials of water and fire together, while only being protected by his “Magic Flute.” It is a story about triumph, courage, and wisdom overcoming evil. It is said that The Magic Flute was the greatest operatic success of Mozart’s entire career, and it is an absolute masterpiece of musical theatre. The story is a combination of life-threatening situations combined with moments of side-splitting comedy and special effects.

This family-friendly, musical stage production is suitable for all ages, and is a lot of fun. No matter the direction the story takes, the music is always beautiful, always magical, and always Mozart!
