Neil Young's rock opera, Greendale (Reprise/Wea), will make its world premiere musical debut next year at the Dallas Undermain Theatre March 29 through May 3. The opera derives from Young's 2003 album of the same name, where three generations of a family incorporate themes of media consolidation and environmentalism. The spring run follows a series of Greendale releases—first the album, then the Young-directed film that same year, with these performances and a planned graphic novel still yet to come. Previews will run March 26-28 with more information available on the theater's website.
