"It's official - San Francisco Opera is bringing back The Ring. Richard Wagner's monumental four-part, 15-hour opera cycle will return to the War Memorial Opera House in June 2028. Directed by Francesca Zambello and conducted by Eun Sun Kim, the full Ring of the Nibelung cycle will be performed three complete times - exactly 10 years after the production was last staged at San Francisco Opera, in 2018."
"The principal cast includes Tamara Wilson making her company debut as Brünnhilde. Brian Mulligan, currently performing as Amfortas in at the War Memorial Opera House, is cast as Wotan. (Mulligan performed as both Donner and Gunther in SF Opera's 2018 production of the Ring.) Simon O'Neill, recently seen onstage in San Francisco as Tristan in Tristan un Isolde, will perform the role of Seigfried."
The Ring of the Nibelung cycle will return to the War Memorial Opera House in June 2028 for three complete performances. Francesca Zambello will direct and Eun Sun Kim will conduct the full cycle. Tamara Wilson will make her company debut as Brünnhilde; Brian Mulligan is cast as Wotan and Simon O'Neill as Siegfried. Mulligan is currently performing as Amfortas at the War Memorial and previously sang Donner and Gunther in San Francisco Opera's 2018 Ring. Eun Sun Kim will conduct each of the four parts separately as a lead-in—Das Rheingold in June 2027, Die Walküe in fall 2027, and Siegfried and Götterdämmerung in spring 2028. John Keene will serve as chorus director and a Ring Festival with ancillary programming will accompany the performances.
