Music from 1804. Action set in 1988. A new opera (in English). A Roadkill Opera tells the story of the hour before the lights go up on opening night for a comedy improv troupe in Jackson Hole, Wyoming-the Roadkill On A Stick Frozen Foods Theatre Company. Based (loosely) on a true story from a fast-developing tourist town, this original English libretto by Parker is set to music by Ferdinando Paer (Napoleon's maitre de chapelle). A Roadkill Opera, a new 59-minute opera by Stephan Alexander Parker was workshopped by Jeffrey Dokken at Artomatic 2012 in Crystal City, Virginia; premiered at the Mead Theatre Lab at Flashpoint in Washington DC in January 2016; and performed by the Symphony Orchestra of Northern Virginia (SONOVA) at the James Lee Community Theater in Falls Church, Virginia, in October 2016. You can now do it yourself using the libretto from the 2016 shows, the sheet music used for all shows to date, and the backing tracks from the studio recording. This book holds the conductor's score and parts for the Overture, which runs about 9 minutes. It also includes photos from the January 2016 shows.
