NYC Opera announces 1st full season after bankruptcy

NEW YORK (AP) — The revived New York City Opera announced its first full season following its emergence from bankruptcy, planning 28 performances of six works in 2016-17 that include the U.S. debut of Antonio de Literes' "Los Elementos" and area premieres of Peter Eotvos' "Angels in America" and Tobin Stokes' "Fallujah."

"Fallujah," about a Marine who returned from the Iraq war, had its world premiere this March at the Long Beach Opera and will come to New York in November.

"La Campana Sommersa," given its U.S. premiere by the Metropolitan Opera in 1928, will be performed starting March 31, followed in May by the early 18th century "Los Elementos" and in June by "Angels," based on the Tony Kushner play and first seen at Paris' Theatre du Chatelet in 2004.
