2021-2022 Operas within Driving Distance
05/21/22 Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor
The new production is updated to the modern American rust belt with its own kind of poverty and patronage problems. Nadine Sierra and Javier Camarena are Lucia and Edgardo.
05/14/22 Wagner: Die Meistersinger
This performance was recorded last fall for broadcast today. Pictured is the end of Act II, in which a serenade to the wrong girl by the wrong man becomes a brawl in the streets which ends when the night watchman walks through.
05/07/22 Puccini: Turandot
This will also be an HD broadcast at Quail Springs and in Norman. Liudmyla Monastyrska sings the title role with Yonghoon Lee as Calaf and Ermonela Jaho as Liu.

The Anthony Minghella production has become a house favorite after a rocky start.
