The staging deliberately avoids the countless interpretations that the work has undergone in its over two-hundred-year history. The Lindau Magic Flute takes place in a fairy tale land. And not only because the fairy tale genre intentionally employs logical breaks and paradoxes to truly enchant. Every viewer is allowed and encouraged to find and invent their own story within the Magic Flute. THEATER HISTORY
The world premiere took place on September 30, 1791, at the Freihaus-Theater auf der Wieden - a Vienna suburb stage. By October 1791, the Magic Flute had nearly twenty performances, and in the following months, it remained successfully on the Vienna stage. A year later, on October 25, 1792, it was performed successfully in Prague, followed by performances in Munich, Frankfurt am Main in 1793, and finally in Berlin and Weimar in 1794.
