Der fliegende Holländer
What's it about?
Romantic opera in three acts with libretto by Richard Wagner. A dark curse hangs over him: he may only set foot on land every seven years and try to find a woman who will redeem him through her fidelity. Otherwise, he is doomed to wander the world's seas. Senta, the daughter of Captain Daland, knows about the fate of the Dutchman and feels called to redeem him through her love. But can her obsession with this phantom also be proven in reality? Richard Wagner depicts in his 1901 opera, which was included in the canon of "Bayreuth-worthy" works, a person who is despairing of life and society. Composed in Paris in 1841, the work was published two years later in Dresden. Director Philipp Stölzl questions the portrayal of women in this opera and follows the plot consistently from Senta's perspective — who is 'sold' by her father and is to be extinguished for another man. Performed in German with German and English surtitles. 30-minute introduction to the work before each performance. Co-production with the Staatsoper Unter den Linden Berlin. Original production of the Theater Basel.
