POTSDAM -- North Country audiences can enjoy encore broadcasts of Metropolitan Opera productions again this summer, bringing classic works to the silver screen.

The ninth summer season of “The Met: Live in HD” will feature rebroadcasts of four of the Met's most popular operas, in startling high definition.

All are invited to spend "Mondays at the Met" this July, with four screenings offered at Potsdam's Roxy Theater, all sponsored by SUNY Potsdam's Crane School of Music and J.S. Cinemas.

The Met Opera Summer Encores will be offered weekly on Monday evenings, from July 10 to July 31, with all broadcasts kicking off at 6:30 p.m. at Potsdam's Roxy Theater.

The 2017 Met Opera Summer Encores schedule is as follows:

Georges Bizet's "Les Pêcheurs de Perles," Monday, July 10, at 6:30 p.m.; Giuseppe Verdi's "Macbeth," Monday, July 17, at 6:30 p.m.; Giuseppe Verdi's "Nabucco," Monday, July 24, at 6:30 p.m.; and Georges Bizet's "Carmen," Monday, July 31 at 6:30 p.m.

Special summer ticket pricing is discounted: $13 for adults, $11 for senior citizens, $9 for students and $7 for youth (ages 18 and under). If you buy tickets to the entire summer series, admission to one show is free. There is also a group discount of 15 percent available for groups of 10 or more.
