The Magic Flute

ISANGO ENSEMBLE / SOUTH AFRICA

“Leaves you with a rare sense of life-enhancing joy”

— Sunday Times UK

Cape Town artists reimagine Mozart's glorious opera as a joyous, dance-filled classic.

South Africa’s award-winning Isango Ensemble gloriously bursts on the scene with The Magic Flute, Mozart’s classic opera, completely reimagined, transformed and transported. The enchanting story tells of a man’s quest to rescue his wrongly captured love and the trials they must endure to be together. With a score transposed for wondrous musical instruments including oil drums and marimbas, this energetic ensemble composed of artists from the townships around Cape Town has traveled all over the world bringing an old story new joy and delight.
