On September 16, 1966, the 3900-seat Metropolitan Opera House officially opened as part of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in Manhattan, providing the city’s resident opera company with a lavish new home under the auspices of general manager Rudolf Bing. This fascinating documentary combines archive footage and expert testimony to chart the turbulent relocation and the tug of war between the Lincoln Center’s wealthy president John D. Rockefeller III and architect Wallace K. Harrison.
