Mozart in 8-bit: Opera Wyoming's upcoming production of Super Flute has a little bit of something for everyone: nostalgia, humor, romance, a hero's quest, and a "bunch" of banana jokes. Trust us, you don't want to miss this. You will enjoy Mozart's famous score, the Queen of the Night's iconic aria, and the hero's story of the Magic Flute, but set in a world resembling your favorite Italian plumber's home with characters resembling those from your favorite 1990s video games.
The music is Mozart’s original score, with a new English libretto by Josh Shaw and E. Scott Levin.
Following this production’s premiere in Los Angeles at Pacific Opera Project, Opera Magazine wrote that the new production “could bring in a new generation of opera-goers.” Opera Today raved “Pacific Opera Project’s rollicking new take on The Magic Flute is as much endearing fun as a box full of puppies. The staging is also just about as relentlessly and adorably rambunctious, all the while proving to be commendably musically refined… I loved it. I think Mozart would have loved it.”
