"Our 2022–23 Live in HD season picks up where we will have left off at the end of the current season, with more new productions and more Met premieres than in recent decades," said Met General Manager Peter Gelb. Four additional new productions will be presented throughout the season: Giordano's Fedora with soprano Sonya Yoncheva in the title role Wagner's Lohengrin starring tenor Piotr Beczała and two Mozart operas conducted by Nathalie Stutzmann, including a cinematic staging of Don Giovanni by Ivo van Hove and Simon McBurney's production of Die Zauberflöte, which raises the orchestra pit to allow interaction with the cast. In addition to Medea, the 2022–23 Live in HD season will feature two more company premieres, both led by Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin: Kevin Puts's The Hours, in its world-premiere production, starring the powerhouse trio of soprano Renée Fleming, mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato, and soprano Kelli O'Hara, and the Met premiere of Terence Blanchard's first opera, Champion, about the life of boxer Emile Griffith.

With a libretto by MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient Sarah Ruhl, adapted from her acclaimed 2003 play, the opera reimagines the familiar tale from Eurydice’s point of view.
