Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart meets the final frontier in a bold, playful reimagining of The Abduction from the Seraglio. Set aboard a distant starship, this high-spirited adventure blends dazzling coloratura with sci-fi flair and sharp humor.

At Opera Central, you’re an intimate part of the mission in a small theater – surrounded by the action, with singers weaving through the space and interactive elements before the curtain even rises.

A chamber orchestra fuels the energy, bringing every twist and turn into vivid focus. It’s an out-of-this-world operatic experience – up close and irresistibly fun. Live long and prosper!
