Mozart composed this marvellous fairytale opera, The Magic Flute, in the last year of his life. It is both a folksy and a philosophical story put into music. The libretto was written by Mozart’s friend from his Masonic lodge, Emanuel Schikaneder, who wanted to give a boost to his suburban theatre with a fairy story opera. The Magic Flute shows the struggles of darkness and evil powers with the ideals of goodness and wisdom. The choreography brings the opera to life in the language of dance, ret...aining its principal episodes. The dance performance is a modern theatre setting of the opera, blended with expressionism and today’s contemporary dance styles, presenting the story of the opera, its playfulness, depths and mystery. Joint production of the National Dance Theatre and the Yvette Bozsik Company The German music of the performance was first published by Vox Artis in 2006. Our sincere thanks go to György Győriványi Ráth, István Matók and Ádám Horváth. Additional performance: Festival Theatre, December 9 (19.00)
