Thar she blows!

Prepare to venture into the mind of Captain Ahab, a weather-worn and wounded captain of the Pequod, a whaling-ship. But Ahab's mind is not on the dangerous job of hunting pods of unassuming whales, instead his obsession is with the elusive White Whale or Moby Dick, the whale that took more than just his leg. As his pursuit of the whale descends into suicidal territory, the rest of his crew, including the level-headed first mate Starbuck are increasingly doomed as Ahab's futile mission drags them all deeper and deeper into his insanity.

Back by popular demand, this Dallas Opera commissioned piece is a rich epic, taking us into the heart of Herman Melville's great novel. With a sweeping score by Jake Heggie and Libretto by Gene Schoer, the feel of this despairing tragedy is guaranteed to stay with you long after the final curtain.
