Das Rheingold
Friday, April 14, 2023
7:30 PM - 9:00 PM
The Dayton Performing Arts Alliance
Schuster Center
Based on Nordic and Germanic myths, Das Rheingold (The Gold from the Rhine) is the “preliminary evening” to Wagner’s epic masterwork, The Ring Cycle. The story begins when the dwarf Alberich renounces love and steals the magical gold guarded by three Rhine nymphs. From this gold he has a ring forged which will give him dominion over the world. Wotan, the ruler of the gods, lusts after the ring and breaks his own laws to obtain it. Alberich puts a curse on the ring which sets into motion the rest of the saga. This groundbreaking “total work of art” fully integrates music, poetry, drama, costume, and set design in a sweeping, intense marathon of sight and sound. This will be the first production of Das Rheingold in the history of Dayton Opera.
Important information about this unique event:
In partnership with Dayton Performing Arts Alliance, the Dayton Metro Library is excited to offer 50 free tickets to select performances by Dayton Ballet, Dayton Opera, and Dayton Philharmonic.

The timeless story of Peter Pan extols the virtues of eternal youth and of keeping our childlike wonder.
