Richard Wagner, The Nibelung’s Ring, Staging Directions, Patrice ChéreauRésumé
This paper examines staging directions given by Wagner to the singing actors during rehearsals for the first complete performances of The Nibelung’s Ring in 1876 and compares them to the movements and gestures devised by Patrice Chéreau in 1976 for the Centenary cycle. Detailed decisions taken by both directors in staging Die Walküre Act 3 Scene 3, the final confrontation between Wotan and Brünnhilde, are examined; and conclusions are drawn about the similarities and differences between their approaches.
