A satirical dive into the espousal of apocalyptic prophesies in the U.S.A. and their chilling influence on the current situation in Gaza.
*****
The Pastor predicts the End Times while the Knights prepare their swords - and tune their motorbikes - for the Last Battle: TRUE - it's happening in America! Eve is in Paradise but rejects her unsuitable husband: it's also TRUE - and we'll prove it! The Second Coming of Donald Trump emboldens the destruction of Palestine: FAKE NEWS, obviously! These are just some of the themes of this anarchic and pretentious little opera. Some say it's the best, most beautiful opera ever; we're told it's just incredible… hey! an entertaining and angry satire on political and religious fundamentalism with its faith in Armageddon, it's not for the faint-hearted. A cast of four superb singers compete with a lot of noise in this year's offering from The Music Troupe.
