"Baritone Elliot Lazar portrayed royal bird catcher Papageno as a quasi-counter-culture, peace-sign flashing hippie, presented not with magic bells but a flamingo-festooned music box... his giddy Act II scene in which he falls head over feathers with soprano Emily Ready’s Papagena proved a highlight."
