The Western Front. Christmas. A German soldier sets down his rifle and steps into No Man’s Land, singing “Silent Night”. Thus begins an extraordinary night of fellowship, music, and peace, told in the words and the songs of the men who lived it. Peter Rothstein’s salute to unsung heroes of The Great War returns to the Historic Asolo Theatre after a sell-out run last season. 

“A heartbreaking tribute to the men, who, in defiance of their commanders had the courage to affirm their common humanity.”   - The New Yorker
