The hero Siegfried reforges his father’s shattered sword, embarking on a quest for the greatest prize of all – the love of the valkyrie Brünnhilde, who lies trapped in a ring of fire.
We return to fully staged Wagner and take another step on our journey to the Ring with this remarkably funny and exuberant third instalment of Wagner’s epic cycle.

Longborough’s ambitious new Ring cycle began with critically acclaimed performances of Das Rheingold in 2019 (“both epic and intimate” – Opera Magazine) and Die Walküre in 2021 (“as fine Wagner as could be wished” – ★★★★ The Guardian). We will stage Götterdämmerung in 2023, building to the full cycle of Der Ring des Nibelungen in 2024.
Be part of the Longborough Ring: join like-minded enthusiasts who will be actively involved in this remarkable project. As well as benefiting from priority booking, witness the production process behind the scenes, attend exclusive events and enjoy a unique perspective, as you join us on the journey to 2024.
