Composer Nico Muhly unveils his second new opera for the Met with this gripping reimagining of Winston Graham’s novel, Marnie, set in the 1950s, about a beautiful, mysterious young woman who assumes multiple identities.
Director Michael Mayer and his creative team have devised a fast-moving, cinematic world for this exhilarating story of denial and deceit, which also inspired a film by Alfred Hitchcock.
Mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard sings the enigmatic Marnie and baritone Christopher Maltman is the man who pursues her – with disastrous results. Robert Spano conducts.
A Marnie matinee will be held tomorrow at 2.30pm at the St James Cavalier cinema, Valletta. For more information, visit https://ticketenginex.kreattivita.org/or call 2122 3200.
