New National Theatre, Tokyo R. Strauss Opera "Elektra Unofficial
2025/2026 Season Opera New Production
2026/07/12(su.) 14:00 Starting
R. Strauss's Greek tragedy "Elektra" will be performed by the New National Theatre, Tokyo. The New National Theatre of Tokyo will open its new production of this gruesome revenge drama, which depicts the passion of Electra, a daughter who is bent on revenge against her father's murderous mother and her lover. The music, dominated by the thickest orchestra in the history of opera and dramatic sopranos, depicts with overwhelming power the violent ups and downs of emotions such as hatred, fear, and joy. Artistic Director Kazushi Ohno himself will baton the baton, and Johannes Ehlert has been invited to direct. The world-class cast, including Ire Assoni, Mihoko Fujimura, and Egils Sirins, will deliver an intense drama with a vivid sense of urgency.
