Metropolitan Opera: Agrippina ENCORE, The

An encore performance of Handel's Agrippina will be shown in select cinemas nationwide on Wednesday, March 4. As the imperious title empress, mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato leads the Met premiere of Handel's tale of deception and deceit. Harry Bicket conducts Sir David McVicar's wry new production, which gives this Baroque black comedy a politically charged, modern updating.
