A spokesperson describes the event as follows:
“...Mozart’s The Magic Flute has long captivated audiences with its intricate narrative, blending whimsical fantasy with profound themes of love, enlightenment, and moral growth. In this new production, Buchman explores the opera through the eyes of adolescence, where the simple moral certainties of childhood give way to the complex realities of adulthood. Drawing inspiration from role-playing games, Buchman highlights the opera’s universal themes of resilience, camaraderie, and self-discovery in an immersive experience..."
