The Little Village Mag tells us that The Des Moines Metro Opera delivered a compelling rendition of Richard Wagner's The Flying Dutchman. The production was distinguished by its potent cast, with Ryan McKinny delivering a commanding performance as the tortured Dutchman and Julie Adams captivating as Senta. The staging and design were particularly effective, deepening the opera's profound emotional narrative.

The production continues to run on:
