New York (AFP) - A mesmerizing musical biography of civil rights leader Malcolm X that infuses history with Afrofuturism will open at New York's Metropolitan Opera on Friday. It's a long time coming: "X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X" first premiered in the mid-1980s to favorable reviews, but went unrevived for decades, with just a few stagings over nearly 40 years.

But the prestigious New York cultural institution has been repositioning itself, showcasing more modern works by women and non-white composers and updating classics to appeal to younger audiences.
