Marnie – Friday, February 1 at 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings) THIRTEEN – https://www.thirteen.org/

Composer Nico Muhly returns to the Met with a thrilling new work, which reimagines Winston Graham’s novel for the operatic stage. Set in 1950s England, Marnie stars Isabel Leonard in the title role alongsideChristopher Maltman as Mark Rutland. Hewing more closely to the novel than its cinematic predecessor by Alfred Hitchcock,Marnie is a dark mystery. Leonard’s character assumes multiple identities, running from a painful past into an all too uncertain future. This opera can also offer a timely commentary of gender power dynamics in the current era of #MeToo.

Conducted by Robert Spano, Marnie is a gripping tale with cinematic-like pacing. Masterful projections are incorporated into the set design, creating the perfect environment for drama to unfold while sending chills down your spine and making you think. Great Performances Met Opera PBS 2019 Full Free Streaming Schedule
