With The Magic Flute, Mozart wanted to write a piece for everyone – the blend of Viennese folk theater, Singspiel, and Italian opera makes it a favourite with audiences to this day. There's something for every taste, from catchy songs and arias to humorous spoken dialogue and fairytale elements.

Günter Krämer’s production creates two contrasting worlds: the realm of the Queen of the Night and the temple of the Sun King.

Between them travels Prince Tamino, accompanied by the bird catcher Papageno. On their adventurous journey, they traverse primeval forests inhabited by lions, rhinoceroses and snakes. Mozart’s opera imaginatively invites reflection on good and evil, dreams, fears and love.

The lovingly crafted, partly mechanical set design creates stage magic.

Renowned Mozart interpreter Tomáš Netopil conducts the Deutsche Oper Berlin orchestra.

The Deutsche Oper’s ensemble of soloists will enchant you with their joy of performing and singing.
