Met Summer Encore: Turandot
Thursday, July 22, 2010 (Start time varies)
Running Time: 2 hours 5 minutes

An encore performance of Puccini’s Turandot will be shown in select theatres on Thursday, July 22, 2010, at varying start times in all time zones.

Director Franco Zeffirelli’s breathtaking production of Puccini’s final opera is a favorite of the Met repertoire. Maria Guleghina plays the ruthless Chinese princess of the title, whose hatred of men is so strong that she has all suitors who can’t solve her riddles beheaded. Marcello Giordani sings Calàf, the unknown prince who eventually wins her love and whose solos include the famous “Nessun dorma.”
