“Tristan und Isolde” has long been a magnet for trouble. Heppner hopes to return for the final performances, on Tuesday and March 28. However ill-fated the current “Tristan,” there is still time to turn things around. “There are risks in any production, but certainly what happened was a fluke, and when you consider that the Met is a repertory theater, with so many different performances, it’s remarkable how few mishaps occur.” “It seems this production’s run has been somewhat star-crossed,” said Peter Gelb, the Met’s general manager. Richard Versalle had a heart attack and fell off this ladder in 1996 at the Met.
