In The Magic Flute Mozart dazzles us with a glorious mix of myth, ritual and pantomime, with melodies as enchanting as the plot is mysterious. A combination of the sublime and the mysterious, characters include the heroic, noble Prince Tamino, a radiant Princess Pamina, a scene stealing birdcatcher Papageno, who eventually finds his love match Pappagena, and the seductive three ladies. The Magic Flute is packed full of operatic favourites, including one of the most spectacular of operatic arias - the magnificently evil Queen of the Night.
