All is Calm: the Christmas Truce of 1914 at NC Stage

The Western Front, Christmas, 1914. Out of the violence a silence, then a song. A German soldier steps into No Man’s Land singing “Stille Nacht.” Thus begins an extraordinary time of camaraderie, music, and peace. A remarkable true story of the spontaneous Christmastime WWI ceasefire, told in the words and songs of the men who lived it.

“A beautiful musical retelling of a World War I ceasefire with gifts of music, poetry, and melody.”
