AMADEUS Comes To Masquerade Theatre Company Next Month

The Masquerade Theatre Company presents AMADEUS, by Peter Shaffer, running from Oct. 19 to Oct. 26.

AMADEUS by Peter Shaffer brings to life the story and music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Salieri. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is nowadays rightly regarded as arguably the greatest composer that ever lived. But when he died in poverty in 1791 aged just 35, he seemed to be one of the forgotten men of music. By contrast, his contemporary and rival Antonio Salieri, who by his own admission was an infinitely inferior composer, had prospered. A paradox or what? Out of this anomalous situation the English dramatist, Peter Shaffer has fashioned his acclaimed play, Amadeus.Shaffer sends us back more than 180 years to Vienna, city of musicians.
