The Metropolitan Opera's 2025-2026 season opened last night with Mason Bates' The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. Based on Michael Chabon's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name, the opera follows Josef Kavalier and Samuel Klayman, two Jewish cousins who break into the burgeoning comic book industry of the 1930s with the creation of an anti-fascist superhero called The Escapist, inspired by Josef's escape from Nazi-occupied Prague.
