About The Metropolitan Opera: Porgy and Bess
The Gershwins’ modern American masterpiece has its first Met performances in almost three decades, starring bass-baritone Eric Owens and soprano Angel Blue in the title roles. Director James Robinson’s stylish production transports audiences to Catfish Row, a setting vibrant with the music, dancing, emotion, and heartbreak of its inhabitants.
Directed by Gary Halvorson, The Metropolitan Opera: Porgy and Bess leans on a strong ensemble — Angel Blue, Eric Owens, Golda Schultz — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 2020.
