Mozart & Salieri

Myth or murder? Did the composer Antonio Salieri murder his friend and colleague Wolfgang Mozart, or is it just an urban legend? Alexander Pushkin’s play, which premiered less than 10 years after the real Salieri’s death, inspired Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov to write his opera, which in turn inspired Peter Shaffer’s landmark Olivier and Tony Award winning play AMADEUS, later adapted into the Oscar-winning film.

Circle in the Sand now gives you the rare opportunity to see both Pushkin’s play and Rimsky-Korsakov’s opera back-to-back, as a one-hour double-bill. David Meadows directs his own acclaimed translation of both works.
