In Tauris, present-day Crimea, Thoas, king of the Scythians, reigns. Because he is prophesied to die at the hand of a stranger, every stranger who enters the land is sacrificed. Iphigeneia, who has been in Tauris for fifteen years, is charged with carrying out the death sentences. If two of her compatriots land on Tauris, she will have to kill them too. They are her brother Orestes and his cousin and friend Pylades. Without revealing his identity, Orestes tells her that her mother Clytemnestra killed her father Agamemnon. In turn, Orestes avenged his father and killed Clytemnestra. At the behest of the god Apollo, Orestes sails to the Black Sea with his friend Pylades.

Iphigeneia manages to let Pylades escape. Just before she has to kill Orestes, she recognizes her brother in him. King Thoas sees a conspiracy in this and wants to kill them. That is prevented in time by Pylades who arrives with a Greek army and kills Thoas. At that moment the goddess Artemis appears. She declares that the gods are reconciled and that Iphigeneia and Orestes can return to their homeland.

English

In Tauris, de tegenwoordige Krim, heerst Thoas, koning der Scythen. Omdat hem is voorspeld dat hij zal sterven door de hand van een vreemdeling, wordt iedere vreemde die het land betreedt geofferd. Iphigeneia, die al vijftien jaar in Tauris verblijft, is belast met de voltrekking van de doodvonnissen. Als twee van haar landgenoten op Tauris landen, zal zij ook hen moeten doden. Het zijn haar broer Orestes en diens neef en vriend Pylades. Zonder zijn identiteit te verraden vertelt Orestes haar dat haar moeder Klytemnestra haar vader Agamemnon heeft vermoord. Op zijn beurt heeft Orestes zijn vader gewroken en Klytemnestra gedood. In opdracht van de god Apollo vaart Orestes met zijn vriend Pylades naar de Zwarte Zee.

Iphigeneia slaagt erin Pylades te laten ontsnappen. Net voordat ze Orestes moet doden, herkent ze in hem haar broer. Koning Thoas ziet hierin een samenzwering en wil hen doden. Dat wordt op tijd verhinderd door Pylades die arriveert met een Grieks leger en Thoas doodt. Op dat moment verschijnt de godin Artemis. Zij verklaart dat de goden verzoend zijn en dat Iphigeneia en Orestes kunnen terugkeren naar hun vaderland.
