The Tempest Thomas Adès conducts the Met Opera debut of his 2004 composition, an operatic reworking of Shakespeare's shipwreck tale. The play is an unusually traditional libretto for Adès, a star of modern classical composition, but he addresses it with characteristic beauty and weirdness – a good match for the tale of an island-bound trio: father, daughter and monster. Fathom's Met: Live in HD Series gives almost a better experience than actually being there, with close-up angles, perfect sound and all sorts of extra programming in the intermissions – for a lot less money. 12:45 pm Saturday; various theaters; $18-$24; fathomevents.com.
