What Is Metropolitan About?

The opera’s prima donna abandons the Metropolitan to launch her own troupe, appointing Tibbett as the leading man. Shortly after, she departs from that venture as well, forcing Tibbett and the remaining performers to press on and sustain the company without her guidance.
