ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
In a mystical world of fantasy filled with terrifying dragons, mischievous fairies and charming forest animals, Tamino and his bird-catching sidekick Papageno embark on a life-changing challenge: to rescue the beautiful princess imprisoned by the evil sorcerer. Armed with little more than a magic flute and an unshakeable commitment to true love, the pair face grueling trials that test their resolve. Along the way, they discover that not all is as it appears in this mysterious realm. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s “The Magic Flute” is a celebration of truth, courage, sacrifice and love as the true path to enlightenment.
PSU Opera, the nationally recognized opera training program of the PSU School of Music & Theater, performs the singspiel in its original German. All performances will be visually translated with English text projected above the stage.
