The MET: Live in HD:
Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay
Saturday, February 7 at 1:00pm* in the Anderson Studio
Pre-show talk at 12:15pm
by Larry Hamberlin, Middlebury College Professor Emeritus of Music and author of Tin Pan Opera and The Curious Listener.
Estimated Run Time:
3 hours, with one intermission
*Please note, this is an encore screening and will not be shown live.
Due to critical acclaim and overwhelming audience response, the Met-premiere production of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, recorded live earlier this season, has been added to the Live in HD lineup. This exhilarating operatic adaptation of Michael Chabon’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, follows the story of two Jewish cousins who unlock a new avenue of resistance against tyranny through the world of superheroes during World War II. The production by Tony Award–winning director Bartlett Sher provides spectacular visuals with towering sets and projections among the three worlds of the story: Nazi-occupied Prague, the bustling streets of New York City, and the technicolor realm of comic-book fantasy. Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts Mason Bates’s eclectic, cinematic score, which incorporates scintillating electronic elements and a variety of musical styles. The New York scenes feature inflections of jazz and big band, the music for Prague is noticeably darker and more somber, and the composer’s trademark use of electronica reaches its full fruition in the scenes set in the comic-book realm.
A note from Professor Larry Hamberlin on his preshow talk:
Not only do the intersections of opera and popular culture run deep in America’s history, but they also enliven The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, a new opera about comic books, becoming an American, and fighting fascism. Explore those connections with Middlebury College Professor Emeritus Larry Hamberlin, the author of The Curious Listener and Tin Pan Opera: Operatic Novelties in the Ragtime Era. | Reserve Tickets | |

Luminous Bodies Book Launch with Weybridge author Devon Jersild
Thursday, February 12 at 6:30 PM on the Historic Rothrock Main Stage.
A reception with light fare and a cash bar will follow the event. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
Join Vermont Book Shop for an evening with Weybridge author and psychologist Devon Jersild to celebrate the launch of her debut novel Luminous Bodies.
Based on years of meticulous research, Luminous Bodies explores the intimate aspects of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Marie Curie's life as only good fiction can.
Jersild's psychologically rich narrative follows Curie from her girlhood in Poland during the Russian occupation through the myriad complications of her adult life: marriage, motherhood, widowhood, and a love affair that resulted in her ostracization from both society and her beloved scientific community. Stretching beyond the mythical image of Curie as a woman of drive and consequence, Luminous Bodies invites the reader to experience her deeply personal losses and the loss of faith she suffered in the face of a pitiless patriarchy. Most critically, Jersild portrays a woman who managed to live a rich emotional and intellectual life in spite of tremendous struggles, a woman who triumphed against almost unimaginable odds.
This event is presented in partnership with Town Hall Theater. | Reserve Tickets | |

"Simple Sage"
By Vermont playwright Kate Youngdahl-Stauss
Sunday, February 15 at 4pm
In the Anderson Studio
Presented by Middlebury Acting Company, Town Hall Theater's professional resident theater company, delivering playful, intimate and conversation sparking productions since 2001.
"Simple Sage" by Vermont playwright Kate Youngdahl-Stauss is based on the curious true story of a house in Granville Vermont built in the 18th Century that still stands today. In the 19th Century the house was occupied by the Lamb sisters, two of whom married John Deere. Then in the 1930’s several lesbian farmers came to Granville and rescued the house and land after the collapse of the lumber industry. Tales of Vermont women during these two eras facing the parallel themes of social restraint and the degradation of the natural landscape are woven together in the play revealing a potential message for our own time. The playwright, Kate Youngdahl-Stauss will be at the performance and will participate in the talk-back after the performance.

Moon Over Buffalo
February 19-22, 2026
Presented by the Middlebury Community Players (MCP), Addison County's beloved volunteer theater company celebrating local talent since 1959.
Get ready for an evening of non-stop laughter and classic screwball comedy as The Middlebury Community Players present Ken Ludwig’s hilarious play, “Moon Over Buffalo.” This fast-paced homage to theater is a perfect storm of theatrical chaos: a paternity announcement, a visit from their daughter’s weatherman-fiancé, a deaf mother-in-law’s confusion over Irish coffee, and a series of mistaken identities, dropped lines, and rapid-fire costume changes that run wildly off the rails.
Ken Ludwig stuffs his play with comic invention and running gags. The audience is in for an evening of pure farcical delight, complete with slamming doors, a sword fight, and bravura performances from the talented cast.

This play dances and duels with Hamlet, foregrounding the women in the play and re-imagining them with agency, vitality, and radical hearts eager for a new ending.- Lauren Gunderson.

"Turner and Constable"
Wednesday, March 11 at 11:00am
In the Anderson Studio
Great Art Wednesday is a monthly art exhibition film series running from October 2025 to May 2026.
Celebrating the 250th anniversary of their births, this unmissable new documentary explores Turner and Constable’s intertwined lives and legacies alongside the groundbreaking Tate exhibition.
Two of Britain’s greatest painters, J.M.W. Turner and John Constable were also the greatest of rivals. Born within a year of each other, both used landscape painting to reflect the changing world around them. Tate Britain is bringing these two greats together for a groundbreaking exhibition, in London from November 2025 to April 2026, and Exhibition on Screen once again has exclusive and privileged access to bring their extraordinary art and remarkable stories to the big screen.
Discover unexpected sides to both artists with intimate views of sketchbooks and personal items and insights from leading experts.
Turner’s blazing sunsets and sublime scenes from his travels and Constable’s idealised depictions of beloved places from home whipped the public of the time into a frenzy of enthusiasm. Constable represents the very best of the old school of realism and pastoral nostalgia; Turner, an exciting new way of depicting emotion and dreamlike impressions. Critics compared their starkly different styles to a clash of ‘fire and water’. Don’t miss this opportunity to see these greats side-by-side, as they so often were in life, on the big screen for the first time. | Reserve Tickets | |

Mezzo-soprano Ekaterina Gubanova reprises her portrayal of Brangäne, alongside bass-baritone Tomasz Konieczny, who sings Kurwenal after celebrated Met appearances in Wagner’s Der Fliegende Holländer and Ring cycle.

"Renoir: Reviled & Revered"
Wednesday, April 11 at 11:00am
In the Anderson Studio
Great Art Wednesday is a monthly art exhibition film series running from October 2025 to May 2026.
Pierre Auguste Renoir is known and loved for his impressionist paintings of Paris which rank among the world’s favourites. Renoir, however, grew tired of this style and changed course.
This stunning film – based on the remarkable Renoir collection at Philadelphia’s Barnes Foundation – explores the artist’s new approach. These later works still provoke extreme reactions – some people are repulsed by them and others seduced.
Two 20th century titans– Picasso and Matisse are intriguingly among the many artists who were clearly influenced by Renoir’s later direction. This film is a new biography of an artistic giant – Renoir – but also uncovers an untold story that identifies him as a significant link between the art world’s old order and the new.

Fashioned as a reversal of the Orpheus and Euridice myth, the story depicts Frida, sung by leading mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard, leaving the underworld on the Day of the Dead and reuniting with Diego, portrayed by baritone Carlos Álvarez. The famously feuding pair briefly relive their tumultuous love, embracing both the passion and the pain before bidding the land of the living a final farewell. Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts the Met-premiere staging of Frank’s opera, a “confident, richly imagined score” (The New Yorker) that “bursts with color and fresh individuality” (Los Angeles Times).
