Inspired by the unpublished play Some Christmas Letters by Tony Award-winning playwright Terrence McNally, Three Decembers tells the poignant and compelling story of Broadway star Madeline Mitchell and her two adult children, Beatrice and Charlie, spanning the years 1986, 1996, and 2006. As long-buried secrets surface, the family grapples with love, loss, and the struggle to truly connect. With a sharp, moving libretto by Gene Scheer and a lush, emotional score by Jake Heggie, Three Decembers is a 90-minute American opera that explores the complexities of family—both the ones we are born into and the ones we choose.
