The final days of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain are going to be documented at the Royal Opera House in London later this year. 

According to the Guardian, the production is called “Last Days” and is being adapted from Gus Van Sant’s 2005 film of the same name, which was loosely inspired by Cobain’s passing.

The Royal Opera House reports that the opera, composed by Oliver Leith, “plunges into the torment that created a modern myth,” with the central character “haunted by objects, visitors and memories distracting him from his true purpose – self destruction.”
