Peter Grimes is under investigation for unthinkable transgressions, yet Benjamin Britten’s probing exploration of the nature of guilt and judgment implicates an entire fishing village. Director John Doyle, a Tony Award® winner for his interpretation of Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd, makes his Met debut answering the challenges of this modern masterpiece. Peter Grimes, with its sweeping orchestral beauty, is a haunting theatrical journey.
Composer: Benjamin Britten, Librettist: Montague Slater, Sung in English with Met Titles in English, German, and Spanish
