The Warner Theatre to Screen The Met's LA TRAVIATA, 5/26
By: Kelsey Denette
On Saturday, May 26 at 1pm, the Warner Theatre will present Verdi's La Traviata, an encore presentation from The Met: Live in HD.
Verdi's La Traviata survived a notoriously unsuccessful opening night to become one of the best-loved operas in the repertoire. The title role of the "fallen woman" has captured the imagination of audiences and performers alike with its exhaustible vocal and dramatic possibilities and challenges. Violetta is considered a pinnacle of the soprano repertoire.Natalie Dessay will put on the red dress in Willy Decker's stunning production, in her first Violetta at the Met. Matthew Polenzani sings Alfredo, Dmitri Hvorostovsky is Germont, and Principal Guest Conductor Fabio Luisi is on the podium.There will be a complimentary pre-broadcast lecture for opera patrons from 11-11:45am.Tickets for this event are $20, $18 for seniors and students and $10 for children 13 & under. To purchase tickets you can call the Warner box office at 860-489-7180 or go online to www.warnertheatre.org/metopera.htm.
