Trittico (The Triptych), which premiered at the Metropolitan Opera in December 1918, collects three of Puccini’s one-act operas, Il tabarro, Suor Angelica, and Gianni Schicchi. Il tabarro (The Cloak) details an ill-fated love triangle on a Parisian barge, circa 1910. Suor Angelica takes place in a convent in 17th century Siena, while Gianni Schicchi, based on Dante’s Divine Comedy, is set in Florence at the end of the 13th century. This Royal Opera House production stars Lucio Gallo, Eva-Maria Westbroek, Anja Harteros, Anna Larsson and Elena Zilio. Screening includes two intermissions. Call 901.544.6208 or visit
