The Russian epic opera “Prince Igor,” famous for its Polovtsian dances, will play on a widescreen at the Marion Ross Performing Arts Center on Saturday.

The opera will begin at 11 a.m. Tickets are $20 and $12 for students.

“Prince Igor” is an opera in four acts with a prologue, written and composed by Alexander Borodin, and is at the New York Metropolitan Opera for the first time in nearly 100 years. It is shown live in Albert Lea via a satellite feed.

The opera is a psychological journey through the mind of its conflicted hero, with the founding of the Russian nation as the backdrop.

Star Ildar Abdrazakov takes on the title role, with Gianandrea Noseda conducting.
