Mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato will host the live transmission.

The production is directed by David McVicar, who also designed the sets, with Carlo Rizzi on the podium. Joining Radvanovsky is tenor Matthew Polenzani as Medea's husband, Giasone (Jason the Argonaut) soprano Janai Brugger as the rival for his love, Glauce bass Michele Pertusi as Glauce's father, Creonte, the King of Corinth and mezzo-soprano Ekaterina Gubanova as Neris, Medea's confidante.

Following triumphant performances at the Met as some of the repertory's most dramatic heroines, soprano Sondra Radvanovsky sings Medea for the first time, taking on the tour-de-force role made famous by Maria Callas.
