About the show

Mary Zimmerman’s "The Matchbox Magic Flute" at Berkeley Rep is an intimate, imaginative reimagining of Mozart’s opera, staged within a small, "matchbox-like" setting. Featuring 10 singers and 5 musicians, this 2-hour, English-language production focuses on whimsical, stylized storytelling, utilizing, for example, a puppet dragon and, for example, a "300-year-old" tale about love and trials.
