The Warner begins The Met: Live in HD 2011-2012 series on Saturday, Nov. 5 at 12 pm with a live simulcast of Wagner's Siegfried.

The Warner Theatre will offer a complimentary pre-broadcast lecture to all ticket holders given by opera expert Nunzio DeFilippis from 10-10:45. Mr. DeFilippis has taught "Opera, a Passion for all Ages" at Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, UConn Waterbury CT.
