ID, PLEASE by Daniel Hirsch '17 onstage in London

ID, PLEASE, an opera with a libretto by Daniel Hirsch (MFA '17) and music by Soosan Lolavar, will travel to London's Tête à Tête festival in July. The production was originally mounted as part of Co-Opera, an extraordinary collaboration between the Carnegie Mellon School of Music, the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama, and Pittsburgh Opera.

ID, PLEASE made international news in February when Ms. Lolavar's ability to attend rehearsals in Pittsburgh was cast into doubt by the U.S. executive branch's initial attempt at a travel ban on people carrying passports from Muslim-majority countries.
