ABOUT

For Peace And Country
2018

In two acts and an interval, with one singer playing one character who in turn plays eleven different characters who are all stuffed-toys.

The libretto is a direct transcription of a video my sister made when she was eight.

A sort-of children’s opera.

Featured in Tête à Tête: The Opera Festival 2019
