A Cincinnati Opera world premiere! At the height of the McCarthy era, young Timothy Laughlin is eager to join the crusade against Communism. A chance encounter with a handsome, profligate State Department official, Hawkins Fuller, leads to Tim’s first job in D.C., and his first love affair. Drawn into a maelstrom of deceit and intrigue, Tim struggles to reconcile his political convictions, his love for God, and his love for Fuller—an entanglement that will end in a stunning act of betrayal.
Originally performed in 2016 at the Aronoff Center for the Arts
Music by Gregory Spears; libretto by Greg Pierce
