The Met: Live in HD simulcast series continues at the Latchis Theatre this Saturday, February 10, at noon, with Donizetti’s heartfelt comedy, “L’Elisir d’Amore.”

Pretty Yende debuts a new role at the Met as the feisty Adina, opposite Matthew Polenzani, who enthralled Live in HD audiences in 2012 as Nemorino with his ravishing “Una furtive lagrima.”  Bartlett Sher’s charming production delights with its deft comedic timing, but also reveals the emotional heart of the opera. Domingo Hindoyan conducts.

The Huffington Post praised the production as “Funny, delightful and tender.” Running time is approximately three hours.

General admission is $22, Met Club Forever members pay $20 (and it’s not too late to join). Students pay $10. Contact Sharry Manning for information or advance credit card purchases at 802-257-5717 or sjmpr@compcast.net.
