Seattlest can't make it to every single opera involving puppets, so we're glad to see that our compatriots at the P-I are picking up the slack. (We definitely called this trend first, though.) Anyway, the ink-stained P-I wretches liked this all-puppet Mozart fable quite a bit:
The Carter Family Puppet Theater has done it again. They've presented an enthralling opera absorbing for adults, fun for children, and as fine a production in its genre as its life-size counterpart at McCaw Hall.
The Magic Flute, as presented by the Carter Family Puppet Theater, is set in a fantastical Egypt, and employs the talents of four singers and a flute quartet. So it's not quite grand opera. But it sounds like a great time. It runs through May 22, and tickets range from $18-$22.
