Based on a book by Tom Philpott, Tom Cipullo’s Glory Denied (2007) tells the true story of Colonel Jim Thompson, America’s longest-held prisoner of war. The opera deals not only with Thompson’s suffering in the jungle of southeast Asia during the Vietnam War, but also the tragic aftermath that followed his liberation. 

Funded in part by a grant from the John P. Murphy Foundation.
