Metropolitan Opera 2019-20 Season: Agrippina at Monterey Cinemas Upper Hutt

Metropolitan Opera 2019-20 Season: Agrippina

225 mins | Rated TBC (Drug use & sexual references)

Directed by Sir David McVicar

Starring Joyce DiDonato, Kate Lindsey, Matthew Rose, Duncan Rock, Iestyn Davies, Brenda Rae


Handel’s tale of intrigue and impropriety in ancient Rome receives its first Met performances, with star mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato as the controlling, power-hungry Agrippina and Harry Bicket conducting. Sir David McVicar’s production ingeniously reframes the action of this black comedy about the abuse of power to “the present,” where it should loudly resonate. The all-star cast features mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey as Agrippina’s son and future emperor Nerone, soprano Brenda Rae as the seductive Poppea, countertenor Iestyn Davies as the ambitious officer Ottone, and bass Matthew Rose as the weary emperor Claudius.
