Based on the unpublished play Some Christmas Letters by Tony Award winning playwright Terrance McNally, THREE DECEMBERS follows the mesmerizing story of a famous actress (Graham) and her two adult children, portrayed by celebrated Resident Artists soprano Maya Kherani and baritone Efraín Solís, struggling to find connection over three tumultuous decades, as long-held secrets come to light. With a brilliant, witty libretto by Gene Scheer and a soaring musical score by Jake Heggie, THREE DECEMBERS is a 90-minute fullhearted American opera about family – the ones we are born into and those we create.
