Since it was founded in November 1912, the Deutsche Oper Berlin has been one of the most important international venues for Richard Wagner's musical theater. As early as 1914, after the Bayreuth period of protection for Wagner's PARSIFAL had expired, the house on Bismarckstrasse was one of the first German theaters to put this work on the program. To mark the 100th anniversary of the Deutsche Oper in October 2012, the celebrations were crowned with a new PARSIFAL production. General Music Director Donald Runnicles worked with director Philipp Stölzl for the first time

Richard Wagner created his own new myth with his PARSIFAL in the free poetic handling of motifs from the most varied of sagas, the Christian and Buddhist religions and Schopenhauer's world of ideas. The desire for redemption accompanied Wagner himself for decades, in PARSIFAL he faced the question of private and social salvation on an artistic level with particular intensity. A strong leader is desired, society is to be renewed. But the appointment of the new ruler Parsifal is just another stage in the repetitive, frozen ritual of power. Philipp Stölzl puts questions about the aggression potential and fanaticism of hermetic religious communities at the center of his examination of Wagner's stage dedication festival. Anti-enlightenment worldview,

Philipp Stölzl began his career in 1988 at the Münchner Kammerspiele as a set and costume assistant for Jürgen Rose and Ezio Toffolutti, among others. As a freelance stage and costume designer, he worked with directors such as Armin Petras and Thomas Langhoff. From 1997 he shot music videos for the Austrian production company doro, where he achieved his breakthrough with Rammstein's “You smell so good”. This was followed by videos for Westernhagen, Die Ärzte, Die toten Hosen, Madonna, Mick Jagger, Luciano Pavarotti. At the same time he made commercials for Sony, BMW, Nokia and Rolex. In 2001 Stölzl directed his first feature film "Baby, a tragic comedy". In autumn 2008, his film “Nordwand” was released in cinemas. Philipp Stölzl made his debut staging Weber's FREISCHÜTZ in Meiningen in 2005 and caused a sensation as an opera director in the following years at the Ruhrtriennale and the Salzburg Festival, at the Basel Theater, at the Stuttgart State Opera and at the Berlin State Opera. After DER FLIEGENDE DOLLÄNDER at the Basel Theater and RIENZI at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, Stölzl continued his exploration of Richard Wagner's musical theater with PARSIFAL.
