We promised you a new venue for opening night and we're going to deliver on that promise - The Magic Flute will be the first opera to perform at The Lir
Booking information remains the same and we will be contacting all existing ticket-holders individually. However, if you have any concerns, please contact us here in the office on (01) 679 4962.
Due to unavoidable technical issues, we must move from the originally scheduled venue, Smock Alley. The Lir, Ireland's National Academy of Dramatic Art, is a new building and instant landmark, with its black brick & green bubbles, on the top of Pearse Street, with all the restaurants, public transport, parking and amenities of Grand Canal Dock on its doorstep.
Brenda Hurley leads Opera Theatre Company’s chamber ensemble, with orchestral reduction by award winning composer Cameron Sinclair. Sung in English, translation by Duncan Robertson, The Magic Flute is directed by Annilese Miskimmon. Design is by Nicky Shaw with lighting design by Sinead McKenna with film projections by Bob Gallagher.
Cast includes: Allison Bell (Queen of the Night), Adrian Dwyer (Tamino), Owen Gilhooly (Papageno), Emma Morwood (Pamina), Matthew Trevino (Sarastro), Mary O’Sullivan (Papagena & First Lady), Lawrence Thackeray (Monostatos), Joan O’Malley (Second Lady) Eoin Hynes (YAA), Nathan Morrison (YAA), and Mihaela Loredana Chirvase (Third Lady).
