Watseka native Helen Todd is back in Iroquois County producing and directing the opera's 'The Magic Flute' this weekend.

The Sugar Creek Opera again offers professional opera talent. It's the 13th year for the opera in Iroquois County.

"The Magic Flute" will be performed Saturday at 7:30 pm at the Harold and Jean Miner Auditorium at Central High School in Clifton.

Filled with colorful, flowing costumes in a mythical land between the sun and the moon, "The Magic Flute" has many of the elements of a fairy tale, with a handsome prince, a love story and the rescue of a princess.

Emphasizing the family theme, Todd says this is the first year Sugar Creek is offering two specifically priced student tickets. A college student, from 18-24, can get in for $25. A student from 6-18 can attend for $20. Tickets for adults range from $40 to $75. For information, go to sugarcreekopera.com, or call 1-815-432-3830.
