THE MATCHBOX MAGIC FLUTE

MAY 21 – JUN 16
Klein Theatre

Adapted & Directed by Mary Zimmerman
Based on the Opera by Mozart

In her acclaimed signature style, Mary Zimmerman conceives a brand new theatrical adaptation of Mozart’s beloved opera. Playful and imaginative, it’s big music in a small space. This “matchbox” presentation of The Matchbox Magic Flute features a cast of 10 and an orchestra of five—following the fantastic adventures of Prince Tamino and Princess Pamina. With dragons, a man who is a bird, trials by fire and water, and underground corridors, Day and Night do battle.

Produced in association with Goodman Theatre.
