Roses in a galaxy Pattern

Overview

Join National Opera this August 2025 for a fast-paced, thoughtfully condensed version of Richard Strauss's beloved opera, Der Rosenkavalier. Presented in under 90 minutes, this adaptation offers audiences a fresh and accessible way to experience the charm, emotional nuance, and elegance of one of Strauss's most enduring works.

At the heart of Der Rosenkavalier lies a poignant love triangle—an elegant and emotionally complex tale of time, passion, and letting go. The Marschallin, a worldly and wise noblewoman, finds herself reflecting on the transient nature of youth and love when her young lover, Octavian, unexpectedly falls for the innocent and spirited Sophie. As these characters navigate the tangled threads of romance, duty, and social expectation, Strauss's music captures every nuance of their longing and transformation with breathtaking sensitivity.
