ABOUT THIS PROJECT

Nico Muhly, a 28-year-old composer based in New York, has been commissioned to create a fictionalized account of a British teenager who used the Internet in an attempt to arrange his own murder in 2003.

Given the working title "Two Boys," the opera has a libretto by Craig Lucas. Its world premiere is scheduled in June 2011 at London's English National Opera and will be presented by the Metropolitan Opera during the first half of the 2013-14 season.

Tony Award winner Bartlett Sher directs and Michael Yeargan designs the sets. Costumes are by Catherine Zuber, lighting by Donald Holder and video designs by Fifty Nine Productions, the Met and ENO announced Friday.

Check back soon for more information on the project.
