Event Details
The Metropolitan Opera’s award-winning series of live movie theater transmissions brings world-class opera productions direct from the Met stage in New York to cinemas around the globe.
These broadcasts are designed to give audience members an “insider’s view” of the production, enhancing the experience beyond just the performance.
Key behind-the-scenes elements typically include:
- Backstage Footage: Live feeds that show the action behind the curtain.
- Interviews: Exclusive, in-depth conversations with the stars of the opera.
- Intermissions: Specially produced content that gives context to the production, often including interviews with directors or designers.
