The Metropolitan Opera

Terence Blanchard’s stirring drama returns following its landmark company premiere in 2021. Ryan Speedo Green stars as Charles, a young man faced with a fateful decision. Latonia Moore reprises her heartbreaking portrayal as Charles’s mother, Billie, with soprano Brittany Renee as Destiny/Loneliness/Greta. Evan Rogister conducts.

Legendary soprano Kathleen Battle returns to the Met stage on May 12 at 5PM for a special performance of classical song and favorite spirituals. Harpist Bridget Kibbey and guitarist Chico Pinheiro join Battle for this one-night-only event.

The vibrant new production of John Adams’s El Niño, a retelling of the Nativity that crosses eras and cultures in search of universal truths, marks the Met debut of Lileana Blain-Cruz, one of the theater world’s most daring young directors. The occasion also sets the stage for the debuts of three fierce champions of new music: distinguished maestro Marin Alsop on the podium and soprano Julia Bullock and bass-baritone Davóne Tines, who join mezzo-soprano J’Nai Bridges to form a powerful trio of next-generation stars.
