Trailer & Synopsis
Opera in three acts (1857)
New Production! Raised by a scheming dwarf and unaware of his true family origins, a young man embarks on an epic journey. Soon, destiny brings him face-to-face with a shattered sword, a fearsome dragon and the cursed ring it guards, and a Valkyrie forced into enchanted slumber... Moments of transcendent beauty and heroic triumph sparkle in the third chapter of Wagner’s Ring cycle, brought to life under Barrie Kosky’s inspired eye following his spectacular ‘Das Rheingold’ (2023) and ‘Die Walküre’ (2025). Andreas Schager, in his much-anticipated debut with The Royal Opera, stars as Siegfried, alongside Christopher Maltman’s towering Wanderer, Peter Hoare’s treacherous Mime and Elisabet Strid’s radiant Brünnhilde. Antonio Pappano conducts, drawing out the unspoken tensions and ethereal mysticism of Wagner’s dynamic score.
Royal Opera: Siegfried is showing in cinemas since May 02, 2026 to May 06, 2026
