Eberthard Mock will lead the investigation into... The Queen of the Night? This was the thought of the creators of the premiere of the Magic flute in Breslau.

“We want Detective Mock to conduct an investigation into this communicative of a full archetypal conflict of good with evil, cognition with ignorance, hallucinations with the appearance,” they explain.

So in the show we will hear spoken recitatives, the author of which is besides the creator of the character Mock, Marek Krajewski. Invariably, the librett author of the singing parts will be Emanuel Schikaneder, whose lyrics were musically developed by W.A. Mozart.
