Mozart’s final opera is one of the best-loved of all time. Semi-staged, this magical tale follows Prince Tamino and bird-catcher Papageno on an adventure to rescue Princess Pamina. Fantastical creatures and unexpected challenges make this light-hearted but profound examination of man’s search for love an instant favorite.

Mozart — The Magic Flute, K. 620 (Semi-Staged Opera)
