COMING IN 2011

The Magic Flute

"Enter the enchanted world of a noble prince searching for his princess, a bumbling birdcatcher hoping for a mate, and an evil queen plotting against the forces of good.

The Magic Flute weaves a story of delightful comedy with a search for wisdom and truth. In his final work, Mozart conjured a score of simple folk-like tunes, dazzling vocal fireworks, and music of the most profound beauty making this one of the most enduringly popular operas."
