The lowdown

Approximate Running Times: Doors: 6:30pm Duration: 2 hours and 20 minutes, including interval Sung in German. The stakes couldn't be higher for Max. A once-gifted marksman whose aim is failing him, he must win a crucial shooting competition to secure his future and bride-to-be. Lost in the blackness of the forest and gripped by fear, supernatural seduction leads to a dangerous dance with the Devil. Seven magic bullets. Six will strike their mark. But the Devil controls the final shot. Gothic grandeur, the lyrical beauty of German Romanticism and a timeless tale of temptation and fate fuse in Carl Maria von Weber's Der Freischütz. Seize this rare opportunity to experience one of opera's greatest masterpieces in a brooding new production by Stuart Maunder, featuring the ANAM Orchestra conducted by Chad Kelly and a luminary cast of singers including Joshua Bloom, Kiandra Howarth, Kyle Stegall, and Meechot Marrero. Dark, thrilling and, naturally, unmissable. .
