Metropolitan Opera presents Lincoln in the Bardo

November 14 at 8pm

At Metropolitan Opera House

Upper West Side, New York

Try to use the restroom before the show because intermission lines get very packed.
Note that latecomers are not admitted to the auditorium until intermission and must watch on screens.

Flickering short-circuiting lights and an ominous orchestra signal the start of Missy Mazzoli's world-premiere opera adaptation of George Saunders' novel at the Metropolitan Opera House, where ghosts fill the stage playing kazoos.
