Sydney: The Magic Flute at Sydney Opera House

Experience the Sydney Opera House from the inside with a live performance of Mozart’s The Magic Flute. Follow Tamino and Pamina through a fantastical world of magic, humour, and adventure.
A visit to Sydney is not complete without seeing its most iconic landmark, and one of the best ways to experience the Sydney Opera House is from the inside, during a world-class opera performance. Step into one of the world’s most celebrated cultural venues and discover the unforgettable atmosphere of live opera.

Set out on a thrilling journey through Mozart, magic, and mayhem in this imaginative staging of The Magic Flute. Mozart’s much-loved opera follows Prince Tamino on his quest to rescue Pamina, as the pair face a series of trials and challenges on their path back to the light. Filled with humour and warmth, the story unfolds in a surreal world where mystery, fantasy, and adventure meet.

Inspired by the fantastical works of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, the production brings the stage to life with playful sets and striking costumes. Alongside the visual spectacle, audiences can enjoy some of Mozart’s most famous music, including the Queen of the Night’s dazzling aria with its famously high notes.

Directed by Sir Thomas Allen, whose long career in opera spans more than fifty years, this production blends theatrical charm with deep musical understanding. First admired for his work as a baritone and now celebrated as a director, Allen brings wit, imagination, and a sense of wonder to this staging, which has already delighted audiences in the UK.

Performed by a dynamic cast of international artists and rising Australian stars, this fresh interpretation of The Magic Flute offers an entertaining and memorable night at the opera in Sydney.
