The Other Mozart

The Other Mozart is an award-winning, Drama Desk-nominated play telling the true, forgotten story of Nannerl Mozart, the genius sister of Amadeus — a prodigy, keyboard virtuoso and composer, who performed throughout Europe with her brother to equal acclaim, but her work and her story faded away, lost to history. Set in a stunning 18-foot dress, this production by playwright Sylvia Milo ushers you into a world of opulence and delight – obscured by restriction and prejudice. The music score brings Nannerl’s musical imagination to life using clavichords, music boxes, teacups, and fluttering fans. Inspired by the Mozart family’s hilarious and heartbreaking letters, this other Mozart at last tells her story.
