Amadeus
By Peter Shaffer
On stage May 29 – June 22
Theatre Cedar Rapids | Grandon Studio
Step into the salons of 18th-century Vienna where genius, envy, and ambition collide in this Tony Award-winning masterpiece. Amadeus tells the electrifying story of court composer Antonio Salieri and his fierce rivalry with the young prodigy Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Told through Salieri’s tormented recollections, this gripping drama weaves music, madness, and betrayal into an unforgettable theatrical experience. As Salieri wrestles with the realization that Mozart’s brilliance is divinely inspired, he must confront the cost of his own mediocrity — and how far he’ll go to silence greatness.
Performed in the intimate Grandon Studio, Amadeus envelops audiences in a world of lush decadence, emotional depth, and one of the most compelling stories in theatrical history.
🎭 Don’t miss this powerful exploration of obsession, legacy, and genius.
