Based on the true story of Colorado mining magnate Horace Tabor, the opera chronicles the boom and bust of the silver mining industry during the Gilded Age while exploring the love triangle between Horace Tabor, his wife Augusta, and his beloved Baby Doe. Set against the backdrop of the American West, the work intertwines romance, ambition, fortune, and loss in one of the landmark operas of the American repertoire.
The production is directed by Linda Brovsky, with musical direction by Louis Burkot, scenic design by Jimmy Rotondo, costume design by Rebecca Ming, and lighting design by John Bartenstein. The cast stars Joshua Jeremiah as Horace Tabor, Carla Jablonski as Augusta Tabor, and Ashley Fabian as Baby Doe.
