The Lark Theater Presents The Met: Live In HD's 2018–19 Season With Giuseppe Verdi's AIDA

The Lark Theater is pleased to present the 2018-19 season of The Met: Live in HD, the Metropolitan Opera's award-winning series of live high-definition cinema simulcasts. The 13th season begins on October 6th with the Met's grand production of Verdi's AIDA, starring one of the world's most acclaimed sopranos, Anna Netrebko.

Soprano Anna Netrebko sings her first Met Aida, with mezzo-soprano Anita Rachvelishvili as her formidable rival Amneris. Aleksandrs Antonenko is the warrior Radamès, and Nicola Luisotti takes the podium for the Met's monumental production.

This grandest of grand operas features an epic backdrop for what is in essence an intimate love story. Set in ancient Egypt and packed with magnificent choruses, complex ensembles, and elaborate ballets, Aida never loses sight of its three protagonists. Few operas have matched Aida in its exploration of the conflict of private emotion and public duty, and perhaps no other has remained to the present day so unanimously appreciated by audiences and critics alike.

The Met: Live in HD is the largest provider of alternative cinema content in the world, with more than 24 million tickets sold since the inception of the series in 2006. The series brings live Met performances to more than 2,200 movie theaters and performing arts centers in more than 70 countries.
