Sedona News – The Mary D. Fisher Theatre is honored to be the home for the Met Live Opera programs for the 2021-2022 season, presented by the Sedona International Film Festival. The season will continue with Giacomo Puccini’s “Turandot” on Saturday, May 7. There will be one show at 10 a.m. — a live simulcast as it is happening at the Met!
Plan to come early as Deborah Raymond will lead a pre-opera talk one hour before the production.
Ukrainian soprano Liudmyla Monastyrska plays Puccini’s icy princess. Tenor Yonghoon Lee is the bold prince determined to win Turandot’s love, alongside soprano Ermonela Jaho as the devoted servant Liù and legendary bass Ferruccio Furlanetto as the blind king Timur. Marco Armiliato conducts Puccini’s stirring opera, which takes the stage in the company’s dazzling, ever-popular production by Franco Zeffirelli.
The Met Live Opera’s “Turandot” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on Saturday, May 7 at 10 a.m. (live simulcast). The pre-opera talk will take place one hour before the show.
