Following the success of The Magic Flute and The Marriage of Figaro, director Chris Monks completes a trilogy of Mozart adaptations with a brilliant new interpretation of his darkest and wittiest work.
Fog-bound London. 1897. Count Zhivarny is a
libertine at large. Dashing, charismatic, the greatest illusionist of the age, he has one aim: to seduce the entire female population of the metropolis!
His conquests include a vengeful scientist, a love-lorn actress, and a newly-married cockney barmaid. But, as his victims close in intent on revenge, can he pull off a death-defying disappearing act? And will he escape the ghostly spectre of the murdered Dr Manometer?
The chilling atmosphere of a late Victorian thriller; spectacular stage illusions; the timeless music of Mozart. Prepare to be mesmerized, mystified and amazed!
