Wonderfully joyous, visually arresting, beautifully sung show: wit, invention, fantasy, theatricality. Framing story & kids chorus to highlight the contemporary resonance of Mozart’s celebration of reason & humanity.Strictly brilliant direction by @jamesbrining #ONMagicFlute https://t.co/fm2NCdlwzb

Really enjoyed it! The production kept us engaged throughout, which doesn’t always happen with Magic Flute. Fun, colourful, well sung. https://t.co/8j1bKxlAdH
