Opera Theatre Company presents Mozart’s ‘The Magic Flute’

Enchanting and evocative, Mozart’s final masterpiece The Magic Flute, is a lyrical love story, set against an atmospheric backdrop of fantasy and mischief.

This profound but lighthearted tale is guaranteed to delight audiences of all ages combining moments of high comedy with intrigue, kidnap, and initiation rituals.

Opera Theatre Company is delighted to celebrate 25 years of touring opera throughout Ireland with this magical and uplifting opera.

The sublime score ripples with irresistible charm; from the stratospheric arias of the Queen of the Night, to the glorious melodies of Papageno, both reflecting Mozart’s dramatic genius and enthusiasm for life.

Brenda Hurley leads Opera Theatre Company’s chamber ensemble, with orchestral reduction by Cameron Sinclair. Sung in English, translation by Duncan Robertson, The Magic Flute is directed by Annilese Miskimmon. Design is by Nicky Shaw with lighting design by Sinead McKenna.

Cast includes: Allison Bell (Queen of the Night), Adrian Dwyer (Tamino), Owen Gilhooly (Papageno), Emma Morwood (Pamina), Matthew Trevino (Sarastro), Mary O’Sullivan (Papagena & First Lady), Laurence Thackeray (Monostatos), with Joan O’Malley, Eoin Hynes (YAA), Nathan Morrison (YAA), Mihaela Loredana Chirvase (Third Lady).
