An encore performance of Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro will be shown in select cinemas on Wednesday, October 22 at 6:30 p.m. in all time zones. Please note: not all cinemas showing the live transmission will present an encore showing.

Music Director James Levine conducts a spirited new production of Mozart’s masterpiece, directed by Richard Eyre, who sets the action of this classic domestic comedy during the gilded age of the late 1920s. Dashing bass-baritone Ildar Abdrazakov leads the cast in the title role of the clever servant, opposite Marlis Petersen as his bride, Susanna, with Peter Mattei as the philandering Count they work for, Amanda Majeski as the long-suffering Countess, and Isabel Leonard as the libidinous pageboy, Cherubino.
