LOCATION:Artspring :: 100 Jackson Avenue Saltspring Island, 
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>Bizet&rsquo;s gorgeous opera of lust and longing set in the Far East returns to the Met stage for the first time in 100 years. Soprano Diana Damrau stars as Le&iuml;la, the beautiful Hindu priestess pursued by rival pearl divers competing for her hand. Her suitors are tenor Matthew Polenzani and baritone Mariusz Kwiecien, who sing the lilting duet &ldquo;Au fond du temple saint,&rdquo; which opera fans know and adore. Director Penny Woolcock explores the timeless themes of pure love, betrayal, and vengeance in a production that vividly creates an undersea world on the stage of the Met. Conductor Gianandrea Noseda brings his romantic flair to the lush score from the composer of Carmen.<br /><br />Tickets are available online and at the Artspring Ticket Centre. <a href="http://artspring.ca/ticketcentre">http://artspring.ca/ticketcentre</a></p>
