The Greek National Opera Presents MANON This December

Manon, presented by the Greek National Opera and directed by Thomas Moschopoulos, comes to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center this December.

The opera is set to open December 12, 2018 and close December 30, 2018.

A scandalous tale of love, lust, and greed set amid the courtly opulence of 18th century France, Manon caused an instant sensation upon its 1884 premiere in Paris. Massenet's five-act opéra comique relates the moving story of a young woman torn between the yearnings of her heart and the trappings of wealth, and is by turns playful, seductive, and poignant.
