Dead Man Walking by composer Jake Heggie and librettist Terrence McNally is one of the most powerful and thought-provoking operas of recent decades, exploring questions of faith, redemption and justice.

Based on the memoir of the same name by Sister Helen Prejean, it tells the true story of a nun’s journey as a spiritual advisor to a convicted murderer on death row in Louisiana's hardline state penitentiary.

Since its premiere by San Francisco Opera in 2000, Dead Man Walking has become one of the world’s most-performed American operas, yet has been rarely staged in the UK.

Martin Lloyd-Evans directs this Guildhall School production.

“Dead Man Walking is no ordinary opera. The human drama transforms us” – The Guardian

“A work of intense music drama that deserves to be heard.” – Bachtrack

Please note that this production contains adult themes, including rape, murder and execution.
