Dead Man Walking is a contemporary American opera by Jake Heggie with a libretto by Terrence McNally, adapted from Sister Helen Prejean's memoir. It follows Sister Helen as she becomes the spiritual adviser to death row inmate Joseph De Rocher, confronting the fallout of a brutal crime with the victims' families and the condemned man's mother. The score blends lyrical arias, percussive drama and gospel-tinged prayer, while the story weighs justice, mercy and responsibility with unsparing clarity. Each staging places the audience inside the final hours before an execution, making every choice feel urgent and human.
