Thame Players- Christmas Shows

THE MAGIC FLUTE by WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART  7.45pm Saturday 5th November and 3pm on Sunday 6th November.  Tickets £16, concessions £14flute-at-thame

Opera Anywhere returns to The Players Theatre with Mozart’s best known and best loved opera, The Magic Flute. It was his last opera being first performed on 30th September 1791 – he died on 5th December that year.  He loved the opera so much that he asked for it to be played on his death bed.  It was performed over 100 times that year alone.  The Magic Flute is a tender and amusing opera, to be enjoyed by seasoned operagoers and novices alike. Whether it is simply a fantasy, or if it has greater depths of symbolism & philosophy, has been argued over, ever since it was first performed. There is no disagreement about the quality of the beautiful and moving music.  It has many popular melodies, for example, two arias sung by The Queen of the Night include the highest notes possible in music. and the duet by Papagena and Papageno, “Pa Pa Pa” is the best known comedy number.   Opera buff or just curious, another great show at The Players Theatre.

Tickets are available for all these shows at Spear Travels, 01844 217228 or online from www. thameplayers.co.uk.

Peter Pan the Panto – Performance dates 2nd – 4th and 7th – 11th Dec
