The Met: Live in HD – Porgy and Bess
February 1, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm
The 2019-20 season of The Met: Live in HD continues on Saturday, February 1, at 1 p.m., at the Latchis Theatre with one of America’s favorite operas, George and Ira Gershwin’s “Porgy and Bess.” The opera will be shown in the Main Theatre.
James Robinson’s stylish production transports audiences to Catfish Row on the Charleston waterfront, vibrant with the music, dancing, emotion, and heartbreak of its inhabitants. “If you’re going to stage Gershwin’s opera, this is how,” raved the Guardian when the new production premiered in London in 2018. David Robertson conducts a dynamic cast, featuring the sympathetic duo of Eric Owens and Angel Blue in the title roles and an all-star ensemble that includes Golda Schultz, Latonia Moore, Denyce Graves, Frederick Ballentine, and Alfred Walker.
General admission is $22, $20 for MET CLUB FOREVER members and $10 for students. Running time is 3 hours and 25 minutes.
