A Christmas Carol and
Amahl and the Night Visitors
The opera adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol takes place on a bitterly cold Christmas Eve, where a ruthless miser is swept into a haunting journey by four ghostly visitors. Forced to face the shadows of his past, the cruelty of his present, and the terrifying future that awaits him, he is given one last chance at redemption. This new adaptation has music by Michael G. Leavitt and a libretto adapted by Anthony T. Buck.
Returning for a third year, the timeless Christmas opera, Amahl and the Night Visitors tells the story of a poor shepherd boy, Amahl, as he and his mother offer hospitality to unexpected visitors, the Three Wise Men, who are following a glorious star to Bethlehem. During this visit, Amahl’s mother and the Wise Men share a transformative moment of grace and redemption. Amahl’s selfless act of giving leads to a miraculous healing, and he and his mother are blessed with newfound hope and joy. Words and music by Gian-Carlo Menotti. Presented under license by G. Schirmer, Inc., copyright owners.
Both works will be presented staged with a live orchestra.
