Sandra Organ Dance Company presents Amahl and the Night Visitors, December 19 - 20, 2009 - 2:00 PM & 7:30PM in Hobby Center - Zilkha Hall.

Amahl and the Night Visitors, a one hour opera in English composed by Gian Carlo Menotti to his own libretto, was commissioned by the National Broadcasting Company (NBC). It was the first opera created expressly for American television and premiered Christmas Eve, 1951.  It is the heartwarming story of Amahl, a poor lame shepherd boy who, with his mother are visited one night by three wise men seeking lodging during their star-led journey. The magi tell Amahl of the remarkable child they have set out to see.

Choreographed by James Sewell, former dancer with Eliot Feld of New York, and Artistic Director of James Sewell Ballet of Minneapolis, Amahl also includes American Sign Language to tell Amahl’s story and share the themes of hope, healing, and compassion. This family-friendly Christmas story is fast becoming a holiday favorite.
