Dresden - Germany

Francis Poulenc: Dialogues des Carmélites

Premiere on 31 January 2026 at the Semperoper Dresden

The musical highlight

Francis Poulenc's opera Dialogues des Carmélites is one of the most impressive works of the 20th century. The moving story about a group of Carmelite nuns will now be performed for the first time at the Semperoper Dresden with a high-calibre cast.

 

Discover Dresden: Baroque meets modernity

Dresden can do both: baroque elegance and creative hustle and bustle. In addition to the classic highlights such as the Zwinger Palace, Semper Opera House and Frauenkirche, it is worth taking a look at the diversity behind the scenes.

If you like, take a stroll through the baroque quarter around Königstraße with its fine studios, antique shops and quiet courtyards. If you want to discover the livelier side of the city, take a stroll to Alaunstraße in Neustadt. This is where street art meets second-hand shops and cocktail bars meet galleries.

We are happy to give you personal tips for both sides of the city.
