''The Letter'' is an opera by composer Paul Moravec and librettist Terry Teachout. It was commissioned by the Santa Fe Opera and was premiered there on 25 July 2009.〔(Santa Fe Opera press release with details of the 2009 season, 30 April 2008 )〕 The opera is based on ''The Letter'', a 1927 play adapted by W. Somerset Maugham from one of his short stories. The play has been filmed twice. The first version, called ''The Letter'', was made in 1929 and starred Jeanne Eagels. The better-known 1940 version, also called ''The Letter'', starred Bette Davis and Herbert Marshall and was directed by William Wyler. The inspiration for Maugham's story and his subsequent play came from a real-life event which took place in Kuala Lumpur in Malaya in April 1911.〔''The Santa Fe Opera: 2009 Season'' program book, p. 64〕 ==Development of the opera==
