Midnight Moment: Elizabeth Peyton and Kristian Emdal Tantris (Young Tristan)

In partnership with the Metropolitan Opera and Gallery Met Shorts, Times Square Arts brings Elizabeth Peyton and Kristian Emdal’s Tantris (Young Tristan) to Times Square’s electronic billboards from 11:57 pm to midnightevery night in September. This project is a part of Midnight Moment, a monthly presentation by The Times Square Advertising Coalition (TSAC) and Times Square Arts.

September’s Midnight Moment is presented in conjunction with the opening of Richard Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde at the Metropolitan Opera. The show will be broadcast live in Times Square on September 26, continuing an 11-year tradition, and will include Peyton and Emdal’s film during the intermission content.  This film has been commissioned by Gallery Met Shorts to accompany the HD Broadcast distribution but is being premiered as September’s Midnight Moment.
