In Richard Strauss’ masterpiece, inspired by the Greek tragedy of Sophocles, Elektra has just witnessed the murder of her father, King Agamemnon by her own mother. Now that she knows her mother’s hands are bloody, Elektra is hellbent on vengeance – but when her brother returns from exile to carry out her wishes, Elektra’s obsession for revenge pushes her fractured family to the brink of destruction. Elektra is 100 minutes of action-packed, “fasten your seatbelt” opera, from its dramatic, harrowing music to its hair-raising finale.
