SUMMARY:Botticelli: Florence and the Medici
DESCRIPTION:Purchasing tickets in advance is STRONGLY encouraged. Due to distanced seating in the theatre\, capacity is limited and walk-ups might not be able to be accommodated. \nFlorence in the era of the powerhouse Italian statesman\, politician and patron Lorenzo de’ Medici\, was the heart of Renaissance art and culture. One artist\, above all others\, was able to evoke the lights and shadows of this unforgettable era: Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510). Through Botticelli: Florence and the Medici\, we re-live Florence and all its art workshops through Botticelli’s life\, his collaborations\, his challenges and successes. From the outset of Botticelli’s career under the wing of the Medici family\, he established himself as the inventor of an ideal beauty\, seen in works such as The Allegory of Spring and the Birth of Venus. The death of Lorenzo de Medici marked the downward spiral of the Florentine master\, who was destined to be forgotten for over three centuries\, but the rediscovery of Botticelli by the Pre-Raphaelites reignited a genuine fascination with the artist and sparked a Botticelli-mania which continues to this day. \nRuntime: 90 mins approx.

Many of the original cast members have followed\, including tenor Allan Clayton in the title role. Nicholas Carter makes his Met debut conducting a remarkable ensemble\, which also features soprano Brenda Rae as Ophelia\, mezzo-soprano Sarah Connolly as Gertrude\, baritone Rod Gilfry as Claudius\, and bass-baritone John Relyea the ghost of Hamlet’s father.
