Follow the smartly-suited bellboys into their magical grotto for a surprising take on Wagner’s monumental opera cycle, telling the complex story of Seigfried, Brünnhilde and the Valkyries, reimagined for brass band, percussion and three singers.

Performed inside a tent at breakneck speed, Les Grooms reduce Wagner’s epic 16 hours of music to a dizzying 79 minutes. Spiced up with Yiddish folk, oriental scales and klezmer rhythms, discover a world of gold rings, evil dwarves, giants, gods, magic, dragons and a magnificent apocalyptic ending.

Performed in English. Seated on cushions.

This production is suitable for theatregoers aged eight and older.
