Helene Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Tonight is the Met Opera's opening night, and they are currently streaming over their website under "Listen Live." The opera is Terence Blanchard's "Fire Shut Up in My Bones," based on Charles M. Blow's memoir. Libretto is by Kasi Lemon, and this production stars Will Liverman as Charles, Latonia Moore as his mother, Billie, and Angel Blue in multiple roles. In the synopsis read before Acts II-III, the commentators, described how Camille A. Brown choreographed multiple dances. The peoople in the house and in Duffy Square, Marcus Garvey Park, and Broadway Square watching on big screens can see it, as well as people attending at Met Opera for the rest of the run, and as part of the Live in HD series in cinemas on Saturday, October 23. (And, if makes its way to PBS, whenever local stations broadcast it.) Link to comment
Helene Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 I didn't realize that, as co-director with James Robinson, Camille A. Brown is now the first Black director at the Met Opera. Link to comment
