This holiday season, multi-Grammy Award winner and Olivier Award-winning opera star Joyce DiDonato brings her singular voice to a brand-new production of the beloved family opera, Amahl and the Night Visitors, the first seasonal family offering in Lincoln Center Theater history, and in association with The Metropolitan Opera.

In the desert lands of the first century, a young boy catches the sight of a giant star. Later that evening, as his mother prays for the family’s future, they are visited by three mysterious kings on a journey to visit a newborn child. This is the tale of how a simple gift can become a miracle that transforms the world. Helmed by acclaimed Tony Award-winning director Kenny Leon, this fresh and acoustically intimate take on the classic captures every aching emotion in composer Gian Carlo Menotti’s score. Amahl and the Night Visitors celebrates the wonder and joy of the season for audiences, young and old.
