The Met: Live in HD series continues at the Latchis Theatre this Saturday, November 18, at 1 p.m., with the American premiere of Thomas Ades’ “The Exterminating Angel.”

Hailed as “stunningly innovative” (New York Times) and “a major cultural event” (Huffington Post) at its October 26 Met premiere, “The Exterminating Angel” is a surreal fantasy about a dinner party from which the guests can’t escape. Tom Cairns, who wrote the libretto in collaboration with the composer, directs the new production, and Ades conducts his own adventurous new opera.

Admission is $22, $20 for MET CLUB FOREVER members, and $10 for students. Please contact Sharry Manning at 802-275-5717 or sjmpr@comcast.net for questions and advance credit card purchases. The approximate running time is 3 hours, and the opera will be simulcast in the Fountain Theater at the Latchis.
