If there was a tale Benjamin Britten was born to tell, it's Henry James's The Turn of the Screw, rife with ambiguity about innocence and perversity. And Britten's opera is aptly chilling and terse. Here's a production with a difference: the cast and audience move around inside and outside the grand Wave Hill House: just like the house and grounds the story takes place in. This sold out long ago. But, as this story tells you, things can happen to people.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: You just KNOW I'm going to tell you to walk on down to Liebman's Deli, don't you? And with that food, you're gonna need a walk.
