The Metropolitan Opera was forced to stage a semi-staged performance of Puccini’s \u201cTurandot\u201d on Wednesday night after a stage elevator jammed.<\/p>\n

Met general manager Peter Gelb made an announcement from the stage before the show.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sorry to say that this is not going to be a normal night at the opera \u2014 not that when it comes to the Met, normal and opera are two words that are typically used in the same sentence,\u201d Gelb said.<\/p>\n

The Met usually has sets for four different operas in the house at any given time, and Gelb said the malfunction occurred as sets were moved following a daytime rehearsal of Puccini’s \u201cLa Rondine (The Swallow.)\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cOur brilliant cast, orchestra and chorus are ready to perform for you in what will be an historic first \u2014 a semi-staged presentation of `Turandot’ at the Met,\u201d Gelb said. <\/p>\n

The performance took place with the cast and chorus on a portion of a set used for the apartments of the three ministers of state: Ping, Pang and Pong.<\/p>\n

Ticket holders were given the option of refunds.<\/p>\n

Franco Zeffirelli’s staging premiered in 1987 and has among the most lavish sets in Met history, recreating an imperial throne room with 199 people on stage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
