Born in Bayreuth, she was known by the nickname "Die Maus" or "Mausi".  Along with other members of her family, from early in life Friedelind Wagner was involved with the Bayreuth Festspielhaus.  In 1936, she began work as an assistant to Heinz Tietjen but her outspoken criticism of close family friend Adolf Hitler and the policies of the Third Reich led to her leaving Germany in 1939.  She lived for a short time in Switzerland before emigrating first to England where she began writing anti-Nazi columns for the "Daily Sketch" newspaper.

She is known for her parts in the "Jahrhundertring ", the centenary production of Wagner's "Der Ring des Nibelungen" at the Bayreuth Festival, including the filmed version of 1980.

Der Bärenhäuter (opera): Der Bärenhäuter is an 1899 German-language opera by Siegfried Wagner based on the German folk tale Der Bärenhäuter, or the Bearskin man.  As with most of Siegfried Wagner's operas it is more influenced by his teacher Humperdinck than his father Richard Wagner's operas.

Richard Wagner: Wilhelm Richard Wagner ( ; ] ; 22 May 181313 February 1883) was a German composer, theatre director, polemicist, and conductor who is primarily known for his operas (or, as some of his later works were later known, "music dramas").  Unlike most opera composers, Wagner wrote both the libretto and the music for each of his stage works.  Initially establishing his reputation as a composer of works in the romantic vein of Weber and Meyerbeer, Wagner revolutionised opera through his concept of the "Gesamtkunstwerk" ("total work of art"), by which he sought to synthesise the poetic, visual, musical and dramatic arts, with music subsidiary to drama.  He described this vision in a series of essays published between 1849 and 1852.  Wagner realised these ideas most fully in the first half of the four-opera cycle "Der Ring des Nibelungen" ("The Ring of the Nibelung").

An allem ist Hütchen schuld!: An allem ist Hütchen schuld!

It is described as a "Märchenspiel" or fairy-tale play.  It premiered on 6 December 1917 at the court theatre ("Hoftheater ") in Stuttgart.

Wolfgang Wagner: Wolfgang Wagner (30 August 191921 March 2010) was a German opera director.  He is best known as the director (Festspielleiter) of the Bayreuth Festival, a position he initially assumed alongside his brother Wieland in 1951 until the latter's death in 1966.  From then on, he assumed total control until he retired in 2008, although many of the productions which he commissioned were severely criticized in their day.  He had been plagued by family conflicts and criticism for many years.  He was the son of Siegfried Wagner, the grandson of Richard Wagner, and the great-grandson of Franz Liszt.
