Met Opera: La Fanciulla Del West at Bodmin
Bodmin's Capitol Cinema hosts this big-screen relay of Puccini's La Fanciulla Del West, broadcast live from the Metropolitan Opera in New York.

These Met Opera relays bring world-class performances to Cornwall in outstanding audio and visual quality, making a night at the opera genuinely accessible without the trip to London or New York. A great evening for opera lovers and curious newcomers alike — check the Capitol Cinema's listings for running time and interval information before you go.
