Darren: I want this opera to be STIFF. COLD. RIGID. You must skate like marrionettes; like clockwork figures; like silly toy soldiers. I want to expose the mindless, self-destructive relationship between fans and players, the soul-sucking superficiality of the Stanley Cup. I want the audience to see the futility of it all. There must be more craven violence! Less joy! A communal feeling of desperate desolation! All together now...
