3D Comes to Opera

The New York Metropolitan Opera is in its fifth season of  live simulcasting via satellite in theaters all over the United States and in 43 countries around the world, from Norway to Uruguay.  The Guardian reports that the The Royal Opera House in London’s Covent Garden is challenging the Met’s dominance in opera simulcasting by developing 3D.
