I Want Her Dead
Film at Lincoln Center
May 31 at 12:30 pm
Gianluca Matarrese boldly melds high-tension documentary and expressive fiction in this tale of enmity between two sisters-in-law in a small Calabrian village, arriving at a tragicomic, inventive meditation on the metaphysical possibility of reconciliation and forgiveness.
Mary, Queen of Scots: Scottish Ballet, June 4-7
As death approaches, Elizabeth I of England is haunted by memories—real and imagined—of her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots. Two queens who never met, locked in a dance of sex, jealousy, political intrigue, and religious warfare. A Scottish Ballet production from choreographer Sophie Laplane and co-creator James Bonas: Renaissance meets punk, classical ballet meets visceral theatre, history made urgent, immediate, unmissable. "A masterpiece of modern ballet" (The List, UK). Get tickets »Artists carry us forward
