Mozart’s classic comedy comes roaring to life with a fresh interpretation. Artistic Director Jonathan Eaton adds contemporary flair to this timeless 18th century masterpiece. Sophisticated seduction and delightful deceptions are just half the fun. The humor is complemented with some of the greatest ensembles ever written, a dazzling overture, and divine arias.

Let Johann Strauss take you to the most lavish party of the holiday season. Opulence abounds in Jonathan Eaton’s gilded new production. A masked ball opens the door for a hilarious series of mistaken identities, misplaced flirtations, and some surprise star entertainers. This New Year’s favorite will have you waltzing in the aisles.
