Driven by her consuming love for a human prince, water nymph RUSALKA abandons her realm to navigate his mortal world. A tale of longing, transformation and the high cost of desire, Dvořák’s rich, lyrical score brings this darkly poetic fairy tale to life with the iconic Song to the Moon at its heart.
Irish National Opera’s new production features a world-class cast, with Irish soprano Jennifer Davis in the title role. A rising star on the international stage, her performance in INO’s Faust (2023) was praised as “exquisite and vibrantly emotional” (Sunday Independent).


New York tenor Ryan Capozzo is the Prince, with American mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung as the witch Ježibaba and Croatian bass Ante Jerkunica as Rusalka’s father, Vodník. Soprano Giselle Allen is the Foreign Princess with baritone Benjamin Russell as the Gamekeeper. Completing the ensemble are sopranos Rachel Croash and Sarah Richmond and mezzo-soprano Alexandra Urquiola as the Wood Nymphs.
Direction and design are by the visionary Netia Jones, who co-created and directed INO’s Olivier award nominated Least Like The Other, Searching for Rosemary Kennedy. INO’s Artistic Director Fergus Sheil conducts the INO orchestra and chorus.
Rusalka is sung in Czech with English surtitles.
