Name

Opera Santa Barbara presents Das Rheingold

Description

Gods, giants and dwarfs clash in a struggle for the possession of one golden ring that bestows universal power on its bearer, in the first opera of Richard Wagner's famous Ring Cycle. Opera Santa Barbara makes its first foray into Wagner with this one-hour-fifty-minute adaption of Das Rheingold by Graham Vick and Jonathaon Dove. Designed by Director Crystal Manich (Il Postino, 2020) and Projection/Lighting Designer Francois Pierre Couture (The Cunning Little Vixen, 2017) Opera Santa Barbara's new production brings Wagner's mythical world to life through a combination of powerful vocals, video projections, and 80s rock-inspired costuming.
