This is something a lot of us have been waiting for.  (Isn't it great to be anticipating new operas at the Met?)  Nico Muhly's second Met opera, this one based on the chiller novel that was made into what might be Alfred Hitchcock's most perverse film.  The cast of young (a relative term:  this is opera) stars includes Isabel Leonard (who, despite her brunette hair, couldn't be more perfect to play a part played on screen by Tippi Hedren), Iestyn Davies, Christopher Maltman, and Denyce Graves (now playing the mom role -- yikes!). Former Young Conductor Robert Spano conducts.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  One feels that Marnie and her husband Mark would go to Bar Boulud for a post-show drink and snack.  But, as they would, you'll have to hurry.
