On the rugged coast between the fjords of Norway.

In melancholy daydreams, the captain's daughter Senta fantasises about the eerie figure of a sailor condemned to eternal life, who is only allowed to go ashore every seven years in order to win the love of a woman. Such love and unwavering loyalty until death alone can redeem the undead from his curse.

No composer before Richard Wagner has set the roaring of the whipped-up sea so thrillingly to music, no one has been able to give the horror of a ghost ship such a vivid sound. With a playing time of less than two and a half hours, the first ever production of a work by Richard Wagner at the Opera in the Quarry promises to be a fascinating summer experience, with the rugged rocky landscape of the St. Margarethen quarry once again providing the ideal backdrop for a captivating opera performance.
