Met Opera to Present GAY NIGHT AT LA CAVALLERIA RUSTICANA, Today

The Met Opera invites you to Gay Night at La Cavalleria Rusticana/Pagliacci. Opera's indomitable double bill returns in Sir David McVicar's searing production from the 2014-15 season. Tenor Yonghoon Lee and mezzo-soprano Violeta Urmana star in Cavalleria Rusticana, the tragedy of ancient codes and illicit love, Sicilian style. In Pagliacci (the second half of the pair of verismo potboilers), tenor Roberto Alagna is the murderous clown Canio and soprano Barbara Frittoli is his philandering wife. Use code MENEVENTCAV and get orchestra balance seats for only $99* (reg $115) plus a Gay Reception during the first intermission at the Grand Tier Bar (near the windows overlooking the fountain). Just bring your ticket to TheMenEvent representative at the party to get your drink ticket valid for a free glass of sparkling wine.
