Poster of The Metropolitan Opera – Verdi: Macbeth

The Metropolitan Opera – Verdi: Macbeth

Plot: Verdi’s admiration for Shakespeare led to such masterpieces as Othello and Falstaff, and if the earlier Macbeth isn’t on their exalted level it’s still a powerfully dramatic opera that hews closely to the original’s story line. The MET’s production retains the dark aura of the opera while updating it to a vaguely post-modern context
