Life and Times: Episode 1

This is the first episode of Nature Theater of Oklahoma's decalogue, a portrait of an unremarkable life. An epic narrative along the lines of Marcel Proust's Remembrance of Things Past, Life and Times is a deep map of memory that takes us on a journey into our own forgotten history. The first episode is a musical, using parts of a verbatim transcript of over sixteen hours of recorded telephone conversations as libretto.
