Britain's What's On Event Guide
The Magic Flute, broadcast screening from the Royal Opera
Mozart's masterpiece, a fantastical opera glitters in this spectacular production - the tale of an enchanting quest for love and wisdom.
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 that when it comes to the quest for love, nothing is as it really seems. Guided by a magic flute, they encounter monsters, villains, and a mysterious brotherhood of men – but help, it turns out, comes when you least expect it.
This was Mozart's last opera before his untimely death at the age of 35. From its first performance in 1791 it enjoyed huge success and has continued its popularity with audiences to this day.
With the Queen of the Night’s showstopping arias, an Overture that fizzes with energy, Papageno’s catchy tunes and sublime melodies for Pamina and Tamino, the music of The Magic Flute leaves no heart uncharmed.
