If you specify a date in the metadata when creating a new event (which you do not do with the default metadata catalog), the event summary page will crash the app. This patch should fix that.
Kind of fixes #937. Not the exact error described in the issue, which I could not reproduce, but the general problem of being unable to create a new event with date property in extended metadata.
How to test this
One way to test this is to create an extended metadata catalog in your Opencast (see https://docs.opencast.org/develop/admin/#configuration/metadata/#extended-metadata) and add a field of type "date" to it.
