Princess Pamina has been captured. Her
mother, the Queen of the Night, tasks the
young prince Tamino with her daughter’s rescue.
But when Tamino and his friendly sidekick,
Papageno, embark on their adventure, they soon
learn when it comes to the quest for love,
nothing is as it seems. Guided by a magic flute,
they encounter monsters, villains, and a
mysterious brotherhood of men – but help
comes when they least expect it. Mozart’s
fantastical opera glitters in David McVicar’s
enchanting production and is led by the
French conductor Marie Jacquot in her
Covent Garden debut.
