Musical Book and Libretto

Magic Flute

New dialogue scenes for Mozart’s Opera, performed by Pacific MusicWorks at Seattle’s Meany Theater in 2015. Stephen Stubbs, conductor, Dan Wallace Miller, director.
​
"A delightfully fresh take on the modern classic.
The juxtaposition of colloquial English dialogue with the original German underlined the friction between the world of everyday desires and high-toned artifice, between unpretentious entertainment and idealized, “serious art." A deliciously ironic layer of humor."
​-Thomas May, Musical America
