MET On-Demand: The Opera House

Susan Froemke’s acclaimed 2017 documentary, which streams on what would have been the last night of the 2019–20 Met season, chronicles the building of the new Met at Lincoln Center and the long road to its opening in 1966. Spotlighting the many artists, administrators, urban planners, and politicians who shaped New York’s cultural life in the 1960s, the film offers a captivating snapshot of what the new arts center meant for the city—as well an enthralling interview with Leontyne Price, the legendary soprano who starred in the new house’s first Opening Night.
