Music: W. A. Mozart Sets: Zsolt Khell Costumes: Krisztina Berzsenyi Lighting: József Pető Dramaturgy: Tamara Török Performed by members of the Yvette Bozsik Company and guest dancers Director-choreographer: Yvette Bozsik The production was inspired by Mozart’s opera The Magic Flute and experience from the eponymous dance performance staged in the autumn of 2006 at the Palace of Arts. That adaptation of The Magic Flute may have been playful but was directed mostly to an adult audience, d...iscussing life, death and love, the fight between the good and the bad. It follows Mozart’s story line but lays greater emphasis on expressing the atmosphere and the ideas of that opera using the language of dance. The Magic Circus is intended for children. The characters are members of a travelling circus (the Queen of the Night is an animal tamer, Tamino is an acrobat, Papageno a clown and Papagena a rope-dancer), putting on a show at Sarastro’s palace. This is a rare opportunity for a dance troupe, to re-think and re-formulate an existing production for a different audience segment, to translate the story and the “meaning” of Mozart’s opera into a language that children can understand.
