ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

In honor of Veterans Day, The American Opera Project is proud to release the HD film of the 2022 world premiere of the new opera Letters That You Will Not Get: Women’s Voices from The Great War.

Available to stream for one week only!

Letters That You Will Not Get: Women’s Voices from The Great War gives voice to American, British, European, Asian, African and Caribbean women affected by WWI through a series of vignettes that share their responses to the war—from enthusiasm to resignation; support to opposition; the war’s beginning to its end. Combining powerful contemporary music with excerpts from women’s writings on both sides of the conflict, Letters tells the story of The Great War as experienced by the women who lived through it.
