On the rugged coast between the fjords of Norway. The captain's daughter Senta fantasizes in melancholic daydreams of the eerie figure of a doomed sailor condemned to eternal life, who can only come ashore every seven years to win the love of a woman. Only such a love and unbroken loyalty until death alone can redeem the undead from his curse.

When Senta's father Daland suddenly appears at the door with a total stranger, Senta believes she really recognizes the legendary figure of the "Flying Dutchman" in that homeless man. Helplessly, Senta's actual fiancé, the hunter Erik, must watch the solemn vow of the unknown to each other. When the crew of the foreign ship comes ashore in the dead of night, the ghostly apparitions strike fear into the entire village, and Erik wants to shield Senta. The unfortunate sailor once again sees himself cheated out of the promised loyalty and actually reveals himself as the Flying Dutchman. But Senta is determined to redeem the Dutchman at all costs...

No composer before Richard Wagner has so captivatingly set the roaring of the stormy sea to music, no one could give such a vivid sound to the terror of a ghost ship. In addition, the self-proclaimed renewer of opera created magnificent melodies, such as Senta's longing ballad or Erik's pleading arias. The folksy tone, such as in the helmsman's song or in the picturesque spinning room scene, is also not neglected. Thus, Wagner has created with his first great masterpiece a eerie-romantic fairy tale full of youthful impetuosity, which is shorter than many Italian opera evergreens, lasting less than two and a half hours. This promises to be a fascinating summer experience with the first staging of a work by Richard Wagner at the "Opera in the Quarry," where the rugged rock landscape of the St. Margarethen quarry once again becomes the ideal backdrop for an inspiring opera performance.
