An earth in ruin. The twilight of the Gods. Deception leads to treachery, then devastation, when Siegfried is tricked into betraying Brünnhilde. Learning the truth of her beloved’s innocence, Brünnhilde at last returns the ring to the Rhinemaidens, before ordering that Valhalla be swallowed in flames. For the long-awaited finale of Wagner’s epic saga, director Barrie Kosky situates the rich apocalyptic drama in a contemporary world of dream-like turmoil. Antonio Pappano, Conductor Laureate of The Royal Opera, returns to take on the impassioned, otherworldly music – including Siegfried’s transporting Funeral March and Brünnhilde’s electrifying Immolation Scene. The brilliant cast is led by Elisabet Strid, Andreas Schager and Mika Kares, who together with the full forces of the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House and the Royal Opera Chorus bring opera’s greatest journey to its shattering end.
- •The show on the 3 February will be streamed live.
Broadcast Event FAQs
These are events which are filmed in front of a live audience, but optimised for the big screen so it’s the next best thing to being there.
The performers on stage deliver their performances as they normally would any other night. But to make sure audiences watching in cinemas have the best seat in the house, the camera positions are tailored to capture each production and work closely with technical teams to make sure every element on stage such as lighting, hair and make-up look fantastic on the big screen.
No. Some events are broadcast live as they happen in real time, some are recorded as they happen and then screened again after the event, usually during a short theatrical window.
BBFC 'As Live' age ratings are temporary age ratings for content other than conventional films (e.g. stage or sporting events) projected in cinemas. 'As Live' ratings are based on information provided by the distributor, without the content being viewed by the BBFC prior to exhibition. They are valid for seven days after the live event.
As Live events are not live transmissions, as these sit outside the scope of UK licensing laws. Only delayed exhibition of a live event requires an As Live rating, even if the delay is only a few minutes.
Please note that As Live classifications are not advisory, they must be adhered to as with normal film certification.
