A spokesperson said, “The Bermuda Opera Team is proud to present the Met: Live in HD [2022-23] & Encore series in Bermuda [on film]. Don’t miss your chance to see these world class productions on the big screen in high definition quality.
“All operas on Sundays at 5.00pm at BUEI, unless otherwise advised. All have English subtitles and are approximately 3-4 hours long, including a 30 minute interval.
“The next opera is Falstaff [Verdi] — Revival – on Sunday, December 3, 2023 at 5.00pm at BUEI.
“Verdi’s Shakespearean comedy features a brilliant ensemble cast in Robert Carsen’s celebrated staging. Baritone Michael Volle sings his first Verdi role at the Met as the caddish knight Falstaff, gleefully tormented by a trio of clever women who deliver his comeuppance.
“Reuniting after their acclaimed performances in the production’s 2019 run are soprano Ailyn Pérez as Alice Ford, soprano Jennifer Johnson Cano as Meg Page, and mezzo-soprano Marie-Nicole Lemieux as Mistress Quickly. Soprano Hera Hyesang Park and tenor Bogdan Volkov are the young couple Nannetta and Fenton, and Daniele Rustioni conducts. In Italian with English subtitles; approximately three hours, including a 30 minute interval.
