Don't miss The Metropolitan Opera premiere of the acclaimed young composer Nico Muhly's hauntingly beautiful new opera, Two Boys, which The New York Times called "a landmark in the career of an important artist" in its London premiere. In this timeless tale of intrigue, deceit, and betrayal (loosely inspired by real events), two boys engage in a dangerous masquerade with devastating results. Tony Award®-winning director Bartlett Sher's striking production captures the shadowy world of internet chat rooms — a mysterious realm of disguise and seduction.
