The Dallas premiere of Jonathan Dove and April De Angelis' contemporary masterpiece opens at the Winspear Opera House on Friday, March 4.
The Dallas Opera has secured the cabin and announced takeoff for Flight, the opera based on the real-life story that also inspired Steven Spielberg's The Terminal.

"We are excited to present Flight to Dallas audiences for the first time," said Ian Derrer, TDO's Kern Wildenthal General Director and CEO. "This production of Jonathan Dove's new classic is a charming snapshot of airport terminal life with its vivid characters, unusual predicaments, and surprising humanity."
