Description

Salome

Music by Richard Strauss
Libretto by Hedwig Lachmann

LUST. POWER. PROPHECY.
Salome, the teenage princess of Judea, becomes dangerously fixated on the imprisoned prophet John the Baptist. When he rejects her advances, her desire curdles into obsession. At her stepfather Herod’s birthday feast, Salome dances and, at her maniacal mother’s behest, demands a gruesome reward. Set to Richard Strauss’s lush score, Salome is a fever dream of lust, power, and prophecy, where every glance is loaded and no desire is without cost.

Estimated Run Time: 1 hour 45 minutes; no intermission

Sung in German with projected English translations.
