Following the success of The Hours in 2022, composer Kevin Puts returns to the Met on March 8 with Silent Night, his Pulitzer Prize–winning first opera set to a libretto by Mark Campbell, inspired by the extraordinary Christmas truce of World War I. More than a century after the war that was meant to end all wars, Silent Night arrives in a striking new production by James Robinson that offers a sobering reminder of the power of music and human connection—even across the deepest divides.
