Set in the month of December in the years 1986, 1996, and 2006, Three Decembers tells the story of a famous actress, Madeline, and her two adult children as they struggle to know and love each other. It’s a universal story about the family we wish for and the family we wind up with.
Jake Heggie’s two-act chamber opera is based on an unpublished play, Some Christmas Letters, by Terrence McNally; libretto by Gene Scheer. The role of Maddie was created for Frederica von Stade.
Kristin Clayton as Beatrice and Shea Owens as Charlie round out this incredible cast.
