BROOKLYN, NEW YORK -- New York City's SummerStage program will bring the Metropolitan Opera, the Ronald K. Brown Dance Company, Everyday People and more to venues across Brooklyn this summer, organizers announced Tuesday.

Ten free concerts, dance recitals and parties are slated to draw New Yorkers from across the five boroughs to parks in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn Heights, Brownsville and Coney Island as part of the 2019 season of New York City’s largest free outdoor performing arts festival.

This year’s festival will launch with performances from Emily King, Durand Jones and the Indications in Central Park on June 1, but promises to bring performance art to all the boroughs.
