Overflowing with gorgeous melody and hilarious hijinks, Mozart’s satirical comedy of fickle young love is one of the composer’s most sublime creations. Phelim McDermott’s staging, inspired by Coney Island in the 1950s, sets the story at a boardwalk amusement park, where the two pairs of lovers find themselves on one emotional—and literal—thrill ride after another. (Run time: 3 hours, 35 minutes)
