RBO 2026-27: The Met Opera � Macbeth

Running time: 210 mins

Two of opera�s most extraordinary artists return to The Met for Verdi�s thrilling take on the immortal Shakespearean tale of the scheming couple determined to seize power at any cost.

Following past triumphs in many of Verdi�s signature baritone roles, Quinn Kelsey is the Scottish king haunted by the ghosts of his murderous ascent to the throne, opposite Lise Davidsen�the world�s reigning dramatic soprano�as the power-mad Lady Macbeth, whose ruinous ambition damns them both.

Met Music Director Yannick N�zet-S�guin takes the podium for a penetrating production by Louisa Proske, a brilliant young director making waves around the world. Rounding out the all-star cast are tenor Freddie De Tommaso as the heroic Macduff and bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green as Macbeth�s friend-turned-victim Banquo.
