Thu 8 Dec 2011

Opera

Enchanting and evocative, Mozart’s final operatic masterpiece The Magic Flute, is a lyrical love story, set against a backdrop of fantasy and mischief. Celebrating 25 years of touring opera throughout Ireland, Opera Theatre Company is delighted to return with an opera full of magic, myth and wonderful Mozart music. The sublime score ripples with charm; from the stratospheric arias of the Queen of the Night, to the glorious melodies of Papageno, both reflecting Mozart’s dramatic genius and love for life.

Sung in English and directed by Annilese Miskimmon, Opera Theatre Company’s chamber ensemble performs the captivating score.

Cast includes: Owen Gilhooly, Emma Morwood, Mary O’Sullivan, Marcella Walsh, Laurence Thackeray, Eoin Hynes, Nathan Morrison
