Award-winner Sandra Oh (Killing Eve) plays the title role in this razor-sharp reimagining of Molière’s
classic dark comedy.
Telling the truth isn’t always that simple. Alice, a brilliant novelist, despises the carefully constructed
lies of modern society. But the more she challenges those around her, the fiercer the backlash
becomes. Soon, she must confront the price of speaking her truth in a world that would rather silence
her.
Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Indhu Rubasingham directs Martin Crimp’s (Cyrano de
Bergerac) highly anticipated play.

Two of opera’s most extraordinary artists return to The Met: Live in HD for Verdi’s thrilling take
on the immortal Shakespearean tale of the scheming couple determined to
seize power at any cost. Baritone Quinn Kelsey is the Scottish king
haunted by the ghosts of his murderous ascent to the throne, opposite
soprano Lise Davidsen as the power-mad Lady Macbeth, whose ruinous
ambition damns them both. Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes
the podium for a penetrating production by Louisa Proske. Rounding out
the all-star cast are tenor Freddie De Tommaso as Macduff and
bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green as Banquo.
