"The Met's experiment of merging film with live performance has created a new art form," said the Los Angeles Times of the groundbreaking series of live, high-definition performance transmissions to movie theaters around the world. In its inaugural season, the series enjoyed critical acclaim and global box office success, attracting an audience of more than 325,000 attendees. This year, Metropolitan Opera: Live in HD will reach more than a million people worldwide, and BAM participates in this second season with eight transmissions at BAM Rose Cinemas.
