Mozart's THE MAGIC FLUTE Comes to Wagner College Opera In May

Wagner College Opera will be presenting the beloved masterpiece The Magic Flute beginning this May. The production will be preented in English with updated dialogue.

THE MAGIC FLUTE follows the journey of Prince Tamino, who is saved from a beast by three mysterious ladies who serve the Queen of the Night. The Queen tasks Tamino with rescuing her daughter, Pamina, who is supposedly being held captive by the high priest Sarastro. Accompanied by the bird-catcher Papageno, Tamino sets off on his quest but must soon separate lies from truth as the lines between good and evil blur.

"With the presentation of THE MAGIC FLUTE on Wagner's Main Stage it feels as though we've truly come full circle," shares Dr. Vincent Graña, Director of Wagner College Opera. "When I first joined the Opera Workshop five years ago we produced THE MAGIC FLUTE outside, fully masked, socially distanced, and with far fewer singers. Bringing this show to the Main Stage with the enthusiasm of this cast and the incredible support of Wagner's Design, Technology, and Management program demonstrates just how far we've come."
