Wagner’s Ring Cycle: Götterdämmerung
Siegfried and Brünnhilde come to find they are both lost children of the Gods, the daughter and grandson of Wotan. In this final show of the Ring Cycle, Götterdämmerung, they become more and more isolated in a world that they cannot relate to, a world that is being torn asunder by fear and corruption.
They find themselves tested, their resolve, courage and love come under attack by the arch-villain Hagen. Soon enough it becomes clear that only through insight and sacrifice can they bring a conclusion to the flawed world they find themselves in. Brünnhilde initiates the end of an era and her self-immolation re-establishes a balance that enables renewal and a chance for a better future. The circle completes.
The beginning of Siegfried and Brünnhilde’s story is told at the matinee performance of Siegfried, the start of the Arcola double bill.
