Billyelliott Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 What part would 17 small/ short dancing children be playing in Das Rheingold ? I can't find any reference to children dancing in the pages I've googled ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picturesinthefirelight Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Yes, it looks like the Marinsky opera version (which is coming to Birmingham) uses children as Nibelungs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a dance as such as far as I remember, think they were miming tapping out the gold in the mines. I think they had gold "bovver" boots too.
