Created especially for children 7+ and their families, The Magic Flute tells a tale of love and friendship triumphing over darkness. The story follows the fun-loving bird catcher Papageno and the lost Prince Tamino as they set out on a quest to rescue Princess Pamina, uncovering the truth about the mysterious Queen of the Night and the powerful leader Sarastro.

Of The Magic Flute, Luca Silvestrini said: “The Magic Flute marks our first new stage production since The Little Prince premiered in 2018, and we're thrilled to share this reimagined version of a classic with audiences of all ages. After the 2025 triumphant opening at Pavilion Dance South West, Dance East and The Place, we are incredibly excited to bring the show to more people and places across the UK.”

The Magic Flute is brought to life through a playful mix of dancing, singing, storytelling and striking visuals, with set and costume designs by Dick Bird, a rearranged version of the original Mozart score with additional new music by Frank Moon , creative captions and video design by Douglas Baker , and lighting by Rachel Shipp.

Featuring a cast of four performers in multiple roles, including dancers Nathan Bartman, Jacob Lang, Mette Nilsen and soprano Donna Lennard, who starred in Protein's May Contain Food and The Little Prince.

With accessibility at its heart, every performance includes integrated creative captioning, with select relaxed shows also offering BSL interpretation, touch tours and audio description, ensuring a welcoming experience for all.

Following the success of Protein's award-winning family show The Little Prince, this latest enchanting production from Luca Silvestrini offers the perfect theatrical experience for the whole family.
