Metropolitan Opera -ENCORE Eugene Onegin: Russian
May 16, 2026 10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.

ENCORE: Eugene Onegin Russian 

Following her acclaimed 2024 company debut in Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, soprano Asmik Grigorian returns to the Met as Tatiana, the lovestruck young heroine in this ardent operatic adaptation of Pushkin, which will be transmitted live from the Metropolitan Opera stage to cinemas worldwide on May 2. Baritone Igor Golovatenko is the urbane Onegin, who realizes his affection for her all too late. The Met’s evocative production, directed by Tony Award–winner Deborah Warner, “offers a beautifully detailed reading of … Tchaikovsky’s lyrical romance” (The Telegraph). This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.

Starring: Stephanie Blythe, Maria Barakova, Igor Golovatenko, Asmik Grigorian, Stanislas de Barbeyrac, Alexander Tsymbalyuk
Directed by: Composer: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Production: Deborah Warner, Conductor: Timur Zangiev
