MET Opera: La Fanciulla del West (Puccini)
The Met Opera's new production of Puccini's Wild West drama La Fanciulla del West screens Saturday, January 23, at 1 p.m. at the Ramsdell Regional Center for the Arts in Manistee. Soprano Vida Miknevičiūtė makes her Met debut as Minnie, and tickets are available online.
It's the California Gold Rush, and Minnie, a gun-slinging tavern owner with a heart of gold, falls for a dashing outlaw.
Celebrated British director Richard Jones stages the new production, the Met's first new staging of this opera in more than 30 years. Soprano Vida Miknevičiūtė debuts as Minnie, opposite tenor SeokJong Baek as Dick Johnson.
Runtime is 195 minutes, so plan on being there until about 5 p.m.
