The Met Opera: “Le Comte Ory”
Thursday, March 20, 1 p.m.

Free Film Screenings. Programs subject to change.

Rossini’s absolutely ridiculous comic opera has never been better when sung by Juan Diego Flórez, Diana Damrau and Joyce DiDonato. “Le Comte Ory” tells the story of a libidinous and cunning nobleman who disguises himself first as a hermit and then as a nun (told you it was ridiculous) to gain access to the virtuous Countess Adele. Directed by Tony Award-winner Bartlett Sher.
