Beginning Wednesday, July 13, Fathom Events will present summer encores of performances from the Metropolitan Opera’s acclaimed Live in HD series in theatres nationwide. The 2022 summer encores series opens with Lehár’s operetta The Merry Widow, starring sopranos Renée Fleming and Kelli O’Hara in director-choreographer Susan Stroman’s effervescent staging.
The series continues with Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, starring soprano Patricia Racette in the title role in Anthony Minghella’s stunning production; Franco Zeffirelli’s beloved staging of Puccini’s La Bohème, with a cast led by soprano Sonya Yoncheva and tenor Michael Fabiano; and Donizetti’s La Fille du Régiment, featuring the vocal fireworks of soprano Natalie Dessay and tenor Juan Diego Flórez.
Tickets can be purchased online at www.fathomevents.com or at participating theatre box offices. A complete list of theatre locations is available on the Fathom Events website.
