We are happy to be working together with Opera2Day on an amazing and challanging project: The Zauberflöte, in collaboration with De Theater Alliantie and directed by Theu Boermans will be touring more than 70 performances in the Netherlands. Max Knigge will create a new arrangement for 11 musicians to which we are looking forward very much!

After the success of the large-scale successful performance Amadeus (2019), director Theu Boermans and his permanent team are now presenting the successor: Mozart’s Zauberflöte – the next generation, an exciting and current adaptation of Mozart’s world-famous opera Die Zauberflöte. It promises to be another sparkling, theatrical and musical experience, performed with a live choir and orchestra. As in the first performances in Mozart’s time, the cast consists of a mix of actors and singers.
A challenging new Dutch libretto was written for this performance. It leads to a brutal Zauberflöte that is as tragic as it is comical. In a dystopian near future, the populists have seized power. The young generation is not satisfied with this and goes into battle to dethrone the old rulers. With love as a weapon, they fight for a new world of equality and justice.
