    22. A family affair

    The premiere at the out-of-town theatre Freihaus-Theater auf der Wieden was a real family affair. Mozart himself conducted the orchestra, while Schikaneder played Papageno with Mozart’s sister-in-law Josepha Hofer as the Queen of The Night. Pictured: Welsh National Opera, 2008
