We love the idea behind Fathom Events, to use local movie theaters to show performances—including classic movies, concerts, opera, and dance. Plus, there are no bad seats in the house!

Franco Zeffirelli’s spectacular production returns to cinemas, with Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the Met’s Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer Music Director, conducting his first Puccini opera with the company. Powerhouse soprano Christine Goerke takes on the icy title princess, alongside tenor Yusif Eyvazov as the unknown prince vying for her love.

Puccini’s final opera is an epic fairy tale set in a China of legend, loosely based on a play by 18th-century Italian dramatist Carlo Gozzi. Featuring a most unusual score with an astounding and innovative use of chorus and orchestra, it is still recognizably Puccini, bursting with an instantly appealing melody. The unenviable task of completing the opera’s final scene upon Puccini’s sudden death was left to the composer Franco Alfano. Turandot’s world premiere was at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan in 1926.

Giacomo Puccini (1858–1924) was immensely popular in his own lifetime, and his mature works remain staples in the repertory of most of the world’s opera companies.

Turandot is in Theaters October 12th and 16th including AMC Bay Street, Walnut Creek 14, San Rafael Regency 6, Century 9 San Francisco Center, and AMC Kabuki 8.
