Co-Opera's Magic Flute is set in a restaurant in the 1960's. Sarastro is a Maitre D'Hotel, Monostatos is the dirty greasy chef, Papageno supplies birds to the kitchen, The Three Ladies are waitresses whilst The Sprites are appropriatley supernatural. The Three Ladies are dressed up in female soft rock costumes and occasionally break irresistably into body swaying from another genre entirely. Its fleeting and all the funnier for its brevity.
In Tessa Bremner's direction the accent is on light-heartedness and fun... by-words for Co-Opera's treatment of comic operas.
Mozart's music, glorious and sacred, is all there, offered in its original beauty by some of the brightest, strongest, sweetest voices in Australia today and accommpanied by a wonderfully talented string ensemble.
Sung in English.
