Description

American playwright Thornton Wilder (author of Our Town) adapted his own play for German composer Paul Hindemith’s 1963 English-language chamber opera.

Event Details

A series of Christmas dinners are celebrated by one family over a period of ninety years, fused into a single, long meal. Hindemith’s expressive music reveals what Wilder called the "mill of time": a simultaneous view of the past, present and future, allowing us to choose whether to perceive such overlap as misfortune, or consolation, or both at once.

Dates & Times: November 16, 18, 25 (matinee), 29 and December 1 (matinee)
Location: Chopin Theater
Running Time: 90 minutes, no intermission

*Please note there is one flight of stairs to enter the Chopin Studio Theater
