Puccini’s TURANDOT Plays Encore Presentation from the Met at Town Hall Theater 12/1
Franco Zeffirelli's breathtaking production of "Turandot" stars Maria Guleghina in the title role of the ruthless princess. As Calàf, Marcello Giordani sings "Nessun dorma." Andris Nelsons conducts. Encore presentation of the Metropolitan Opera broadcast at Town Hall Theater, Tuesday, 12/1 at 7:00 pm.
The opera is set in ancient Peking where, outside the Imperial Palace, an edict is read to the crowd: any prince seeking to marry the princess Turandot must answer three riddles. If he fails, he will die. What follows is a grand tale of passion, tragedy, unrequited love, and suspense, complete with bumbling royal advisors and screaming mobs.
Tickets, $22/$10 students, are available through the THT Box Office by calling 802-382-9222, online at www.townhalltheater.org, or in person on Merchants Row, Middlebury (Mon-Sat, noon-5 pm)
