Termed a "dramatic song cycle," by the composer, the singer portrays five roles (4 male, 1 female) in this 25 minute monodrama. The libretto is sometimes spoken, more often sung, and distills what was a long legal process into an experience that is concise and engaging. Comprehensive suggestions are included for staging and performance.
