A sister exiled. Her brother shipwrecked. A land that demands blood in exchange for safety. An unexpected reunion entangled in tragedy.

In a place far from home, Iphigénie serves as high priestess to a god she no longer recognises, performing rituals to survive in a land that sees her as a stranger. When two foreigners are captured and sentenced to death, a face from her past brings her faith, loyalty, and memory into question.

Gluck’s revolutionary opera strips myth to its emotional core—music and drama fused into a work of haunting clarity and intensity.

Directed by Tan Shou Chen and conducted by Lien Boon Hua, this bold new staging of Iphigénie en Tauride is headlined by a stellar cast of Singaporean voices—Felicia Teo Kaixin, Jonathan Charles Tay, Edward Kim, and Cherie Tse—bringing Gluck’s haunting masterpiece to visceral life.

Set in a world governed by ritual and retribution, this production confronts the human cost of justice, exile, and belonging.
