Overview
Enjoy a night out at the opera...and by the opera, we mean the opera. Comprised of four parts and totalling more than 16 hours in length, Wagner's Ring Cycle is one of the most epic musical sagas ever told. Now, thanks to Opera Australia, you'll soon get the chance to see it — and hear it — for yourself.
Directed once again by Neil Armfield (whose previous presentation of the Ring Cycle with Opera Australia has been hailed as one of the best), each of the four operas will be performed three separate times between November 21 and December 16. Together, they tell the story of a cataclysmic struggle between Norse Gods over a ring that grants dominion over the entire world.
Tickets to the Ring Cycle start at $80 for students and $120 for under 30s, and top out at $2150 for a premium package including all four shows. Yeah, it's pretty pricey, but what'd you expect from the opera?
