More images from the Met’s Thaïs after the jump. 

Crobyle (Alyson Cambridge) and Myrtale (Ginger Costa-Jackson) try to persuade Thomas Hampson to use some product on those nappy dreads.

Thaïs: “I like a sophisticated man to take me out.”
Nicias: “I’m not really sophisticated.”
Thaïs: “You’re not really out yet, either.”

“Mortify the flesh all you like, mon père, but never forget your sunblock!”
