Directed by Carmen Rougeri – Christina Kouloumbi

A Few Words About the Play:

The King of the Day and the Queen of the Night were once madly in love and decided to unite. However, their love was short-lived. She was made of lies and malice, while he was made of truth and kindness. She wanted to rule with darkness, while he wished to reign with light. How could they possibly be compatible? They separated, and their great love immediately turned into enmity.

Nine months later, the Queen of the Night gave birth to a beautiful girl, Pamina, never revealing who the father was. When the King of the Day found out, he was troubled. He wanted to take her with him, fearing that if she lived with her mother, she would inherit her character. So, one day, he secretly took her away and had her guarded in a beautiful tower. The Queen of the Night became furious. She darkened her sky even further, extinguishing her stars. She had to find a way to take back her daughter. Therefore, she began searching for a young man—a hero who could help her. She found one in Prince Tamino, along with Papageno.

Prince Tamino, a symbol of virtue and love, sees in Pamina his ideal match. However, the couple must endure many trials. Armed with love, our heroes will overcome all obstacles and be united forever. Alongside them is Papageno, a charming, fairy-tale-like character whose mischief will bring children moments of joy and laughter. By the end of the play, the two enemies—the Queen of the Night and the King of the Day—will be reconciled. Good triumphs over evil, spreading across the world.
