From IMDB:

Basquiat tells the story of the meteoric rise of youthful artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Starting out as a street artist, living in Thompkins Square Park in a cardboard box, Jean-Michel is “discovered” by Andy Warhol’s art world and becomes a star. But success has a high price, and Basquiat pays with friendship, love, and eventually, his life.

Dimitri Pittas’ season highlights include Macduff in Macbeth at Covent Garden, Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor with Houston Grand Opera, and the title role of Faust with the Santa Fe Opera. His Met roles include Tamino in The Magic Flute and Nemorino in L’Elisir d’Amore. He returns to the Met next season as Rodolfo in La Bohème and Macduff.

Jennifer Johnson Cano made her Met debut in 2009 in Le Nozze di Figaro followed by the Sandman in Hansel and Gretel and this past season sang Wellgunde in Das Rheingold at the Met and Lyudmila in the Met/Juilliard School joint production of The Bartered Bride.

Bradley Moore is currently an assistant conductor at the Metropolitan Opera. He has performed with the world’s greatest artists and symphonies, and continues to work with notable conductors at leading opera houses.
