Love affairs between gods and mortals seldom end well, as our heroine discovers. Semele, a princess and mistress of the god Jupiter, wishes for her lover to grant her immortality, but Semele's ambition and vanity ultimately lead to her undoing. Don't miss this lustful production performed by Atlanta Opera this June!

Atlanta Opera brings the third instalment of The Ring Cycle, returning to Wagner's world of tempestuous Gods and warring monsters a generation on from Die Walkure. Center stage is the young hero Siegfried, who tasked with horrors unknown, has the misfortune to fall heavily in love right in the middle of them.
