'★★★ ½ stars an ideal introduction to opera for the young, the opera neophytes or those who seek an edited experience.' - Limelight

One of the greatest operas ever written, Mozart's timeless classic leads the search for truth and justice, love and enlightenment.

Be enthralled by the adventures of Prince Tamino, an Asian price, and the bird-catcher Papageno on their quest to rescue Princess Pamina. To celebrate the wonderful diversity of Chatswood and Lunar New Year, Mozart's masterpiece has been staged with an Asian aesthetic. Lost in a foreign land, Tamino is pursued by an enormous dragon, among the many trials and tribulations they must conquer. To assist their mission, they are given musical instruments with magical powers, which they deploy on their path towards a deeper understanding of true love and happiness.
