The Other Mozart
Thursday, July 17
The forgotten story of Amadeus’ genius sister, who performed alongside him to equal acclaim. Set in a stunning 18-foot dress, this multi award-winning production ushers you into a world of opulence and delight – obscured by restriction and prejudice. Inspired by the Mozart family’s hilarious and heartbreaking letters, Nannerl Mozart finally tells her story. Nathan Davis and Phyllis Chen (Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival) bring Nannerl’s musical imagination to life with an award-winning original music using clavichords, music boxes, teacups and fluttering fans. Performed, in rotation, by Sylvia Milo and Daniela Galli. ‘Strikingly beautiful’ (New York Times).
Part of EdFest, a festival of NYC Edinburgh Fringe previews produced by Jess Ducey, with technical director Jen Leno. Catch this and 11 other shows before they head to Scotland.
