ABOUT THE SHOW
Siegfried (1876)
Text and music by Richard Wagner
In the heart of the forest, the orphaned Siegfried grows up fearless and untamed, unaware of his heroic destiny. Guided by Mime, a scheming Nibelung, he reforges the shattered sword Nothung and slays the dragon Fafner, claiming the cursed ring and the magic Tarnhelm. But Siegfried’s journey is not just one of conquest; it is also a journey of self-discovery. Along the way, he confronts the truth of his lineage and awakens Brünnhilde, the slumbering Valkyrie, with a kiss. Their love kindles hope, even as the shadow of the ring’s curse looms ever larger. The saga marches toward its fateful climax.
