Maggie Gyllenhaal, Iman, Misty Copeland, Donna Karan, Laverne Cox, and more celebrated the Metropolitan Opera’s premiere of Porgy and Bess.
“There is no such thing as perfection in the performing arts,” announced the Metropolitan Opera’s general manager, Peter Gelb. He was addressing the audience at Monday evening’s gala dinner celebrating the unanimously well-reviewed, which opened the fall season. “But I will gladly take tonight’s performance as the second best thing.”
The night began with a red carpet, where the likes of Maggie Gyllenhaal, Iman, Misty Copeland, Donna Karan, Laverne Cox, and more turned up in looks that lent the event even more drama. From the world of opera, there was Sheila Johnson, the evening’s Gala Chairman, and the cast themselves: Angel Blue glittered in a metallic number; Frederick Ballentine cut a cool figure in a gold suit; and Golda Schultz made the most of the summery weather in a floral gown.
It has been 30 years since the opera was last seen on the stage of the Met, and it turned out to be well worth the wait. Afterward, whispers and remarks of praise carried the crowd from one theater to the next—the dinner reception hosted at the nearby David H. Koch Theater.
