TICKETS $25 / $10 ages 21 and under (plus processing fees) ConnectorCare/WIC/EBT Card to Culture* This screening is an encore per Mahaiwe scheduling. Sacred, scandalous, and irresistibly alluring, Saint-Saëns’s spectacular take on the biblical hero of legendary strength and the seductive Philistine whose beauty overpowers him returns in the Met’s larger-than-life production. Featuring a massive orchestra and chorus and some of opera’s most spellbinding tunes, this masterpiece of French grand opera is a feast for the eyes and ears. Giacomo Sagripanti conducts an electrifying cast led by the formidable star pairing of mezzo-soprano Aigul Akhmetshina and tenor Clay Hilley. *We accept ConnectorCare/WIC/EBT cards!
