The Met: Live
in HD brings the Metropolitan Opera's new production of "Un Ballo in Maschera"
to Greenbrier Valley Theatre in Lewisburg at 12:55 p.m. Dec. 8.
Perhaps
Giuseppi Verdi's most controversial opera, "Ballo" took as the basis for its
plot the actual assassination of King Gustav III of Sweden at a masked ball – with regicide
a less-than-welcome topic in 19th century Italy.
Also, it was composed in an unusual style that prefigured
surrealism. The Met has selected as its
director David Alden, who is known worldwide for inventive productions.
Prior to
the opera presentation, a discussion of the piece and its place in
musical/cultural history, led by James Caplinger, will be featured. Lunch during the discussion is available if
reserved 24 hours in advance.
Greenbrier
Valley Theatre is located at 113 E. Washington St. in Lewisburg. For reservations,
