Scarlet, the author of the treatise Rosa Alchemica, dreams of transforming into an otherworldly being to whom the depths of beauty and truth will be revealed. Her friend Carmina invites Scarlet to join the secret Order of the Alchemical Rose. It is an opportunity to explore the ancient world of the gods and learn the meaning of secret symbols, without realising that the peace of her soul may be at risk.

The music for the opera Rosa Alchemica was composed by Krists Auznieks, with a libretto by Kārlis Vērdiņš based on themes from a story by William Butler Yeats. The creative team behind this world premiere includes director Dāvis Sīmanis, set designer Monika Korpa and costume designers Mārīte Mastiņa-Pēterkopa and Rolands Pēterkops, the artistic duo behind the fashion label MAREUNROL’S.
