The Royal Danish Theater presents:

The lyric fairytale opera Rusalka, with its tales of mermaids and wood nymphs, is based on Hans Christian Andersen’s magical story of the Little Mermaid who wished to change her body and her identity to be human, just like the man she loves.

The opera is replete with hypnotic, atmospheric music; including the famed opera hit Song to the Moon.

Rusalka is directed by the award-winning English director Richard Jones, whose visionary leadership is renowned on the international opera scene. Ylva Kihlberg makes her Rusalka debut in the title role as the Little Mermaid, and the in-demand Czech conductor Tomáš Hanus leads the Royal Danish Orchestra.

Rusalka is performed in Czech with Danish supertitles.

The Danish Research Foundation is the principal sponsor of the Royal Danish Opera.
