The DePaul Opera Theatre presents Scott Gendel's Everlasting Faint. The opera tells the story of a young woman has died of unknown natural causes – or so the doctor declares. Her ghost returns and tells her mother that her husband murdered her. Shaken and resolute, her mother embarks on a journey to find out the truth and deliver justice for her daughter. Based on the true story of the 1897 Greenbrier Ghost, Everlasting Faint is a ghost story, a maternal love story, a true crime drama, and an all-American opera. The opera premiered in February 2026 with the Madison Opera. Catherine O'Shaughnessy, conductor George Cederquist, director Nicholas Hutchinson, DePaul Opera Theatre program director This opera repeats on Sunday, November 15 at 2PM
