One of the best things about art is that you can make of it however you want. From paintings to stories, everyone has their own interpretations. For OperOttawa, they’ve got their own interpretation of Mozart’s Magic Flute. Save yourself a seat on Sunday, November 26, for the fantastical performance with an all-female cast!
Handel’s romantic and dramatic opera, Alcina, weaves a complex narrative where lovers’ quarrels unravel on an island. The story is filled with electrifying magic, heartache, and even spell-casting. To depict some of those lofty scenes, Ottawa opera company OperOttawa will simplify some visuals in its upcoming performance of the show this March. An urn is broken to release Alcina from her sorcery, and some surprising character changes are revealed through costuming.
