Wagner’s epic final opera, set in a sacred realm of ritual and mystery, unfolds as a meditation on healing and redemption with a medieval knight’s heroic quest for the Holy Grail.

François Girard’s celebrated production, a “thoughtful and intrepid staging, full of striking imagery” (The New York Times), features tenor Piotr Beczała (Andrea Chénier, Aida, Carmen, Lohengrin, Fedora) in the title role, alongside an all-star cast.
