Director Phelim McDermott tackles another one of Philip Glasss masterpieces, following the now-legendary Met staging of Satyagraha. Star countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo is the title pharaoh, the revolutionary ruler who transformed ancient Egypt, with the striking mezzo-soprano JNai Bridges in her Met debut as his wife, Nefertiti. To match the operas hypnotic, ritualistic music, McDermott has created an arresting vision that includes a virtuosic company of acrobats and jugglers. Karen Kamensek conducts in her Met debut.This production was originally created by English National Opera and LA Opera. In collaboration with Improbable. Estimated running time 3 hrs 31 min
