Children from the Tucson Boys Choir and Arizona School for the Arts will be joining the cast of The Magic Flute, filling roles of the three Spirits and the Papageni children. Nicholas Masters rounds out the cast as Sarastro with Scott Terrell conducting. The cast features tenor David Margulis (a former member of the Marion Roose Pullin Opera Studio) as Tamino, soprano Sarah Tucker (a current member of the Marion Roose Pullin Opera Studio) as Pamina, baritone Chad Sloan as the bird-catcher Papageno and Lindsay Russell as the imposing Queen of the Night. The imagery, inspired by the paintings of René Magritte with a nod to Victorian-era "Steampunk" style, takes the audience to an exciting place where imagination and reality blend together for Mozart's masterpiece. The production is a magical, surreal world, set inside Tamino's imagination, and filled with allusions to dreams and the idea of nature vs science. Her stunning costumes feature mythical woodland animals, headpieces, armor, animatronic birds in cages and huge wings for the Queen of the Night. New York based Pollard, known for his work in film and television, including a nomination for his work on American Gangster (2007), worked alongside Bernstein, whose credits include numerous productions in theater, off-Broadway, and work on the popular series, Law and Order.
