WHITEFIELD — The Weathervane Theatre’s production of Peter Shaffer’s Tony and Oscar-winning “Amadeus” opens Friday and will run in alternating repertory  through Sept. 1.

In “Amadeus” the composer Antonio Salieri (Robert H. Fowler) must come to terms with the greater genius of the bratty but God-gifted younger composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Jorge Donoso) — but not before setting out to destroy him. Equal parts costume drama, restoration comedy and murder mystery — this modern classic is a wild ride through the trials and tribulations of genius, jealousy and revenge.
