The Met's EUGENE ONEGIN to Screen Live at Peterborough Players

On Saturday, April 22 at 1pm, the Peterborough Players will present a live streamed broadcast of the Metropolitan Opera's production of Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin.

Tchaikovsky's many moods-tender, grand, melancholy-are all given free rein in Eugene Onegin. The opera is based on Pushkin's iconic verse novel, which re-imagines the Byronic romantic anti-hero as the definitive bored Russian aristocrat caught between convention and ennui; Tchaikovsky, similarly, took Western European operatic forms and transformed them into an authentic and undeniably Russian work. At the core of the opera is the young girl Tatiana, who grows from a sentimental adolescent into a complete woman in one of the operatic stage's most convincing character developments.

Deborah Warner's moving production, stars Anna Netrebko and Dmitri Hvorostovsky as Tatiana and Onegin. Alexey Dolgov sings the role of Lenski, and Robin Ticciati conducts.? The runtime is approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes.
