The Magic Flute

About the Event

Tamino, a handsome prince who is lost in the forest, is pursued by a serpent. He faints from fatigue and three ladies, attendants of the queen, in black robes, appear and kill the serpent…

Thus begins the charming tale of The Magic Flute, one of the most beloved operas in the repertoire.

Grand opera in two acts.
Lyrics by Emanuel Schikaneder.
