Tamino and his friendly sidekick, Papageno, set out to rescue Princess Pamina, but soon learn that in 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. Mozart’s fantastical opera glitters in David McVicar’s enchanting production. A star cast including Lucy Crowe as Pamina (replacing Julia Bullock), Amitai Pati as Tamino, Huw Montague Rendall as Papageno and Kathryn Lewek as the Queen of the Night.
