Amahl and The Night Visitors is one of the most popular operas of all time telling the tale of how a crippled, young shepherd boy’s life changes forever when he sees an amazing star “as big as a window.”

When three foreign kings following the star in their search for a wondrous child encounter Amahl and his mother, the result is a timeless and inspiring message of how faith, charity, unselfish love and good deeds can work miracles. This production will be directed by Francis Menotti, based on his father’s original 1951 production.
