The Inspiration: As a composer who loves contemporary music, I’ve noticed an unfortunate trend in new operas: a lack of comedy. I intend to inject a sense of humor back into the new music world with my Zombie Opera Farce. I wanted to make this opera accessible to a wide and young audience. This is why the opera is a one-act. I believe I could write it longer, but keeping it short make it easier to grab a hold of for non-traditional opera goers. – Jillian Flexner
