'The Diving Bell and the Butterfly' - OPERA WORLD PREMIERE

The Dallas Opera presents: 'The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.'
A true story of strength, determination, and the desire for connection. Journalist Jean-Dominique Bauby awakes from a coma unable to move or speak, “locked-in” like a diver at the bottom of the sea. But his mind is as brilliant as ever, and with the help of his assistant, he creates his memoir-an extraordinary story of strength and imagination. This world premiere production from the composer of Everest will capture your heart from the first note.
Grammy® Award winner Lucas Meachem returns to Dallas in a world premiere debut, leading a staggering cast of opera powerhouses. Sasha Cooke lends her vocal “lushness” (San Francisco Chronicle) to the striking true story, along with Andriana Chuchman’s “glorious sound.” (The Washington Post)
