 19\nEvent Date End: 2009-09-26\n\nInspired by text drawn from public recor
 d\, composer Curtis K. Hughes recounts his experience watching the 2008 Vi
 ce Presidential Debate.  &ldquo\;When watching the US Vice Presidential de
 bate in 2008\, I was struck by the extraordinary musical contrasts between
  the voices of Sarah Palin and Joe Biden\, as well as the convergence of t
 wo such fascinating life stories\, both containing tragic\, heroic\, and c
 omic elements.  The audience for my opera 'Say it ain't so\, Joe' will exp
 erience a surreal and fractured vision of that remarkable encounter\, as w
 ell as brief glimpses of other contemporaneous events and political figure
 s\, with some fantastical digressions.'\nComposer: Curtis K. Hughes  The c
 ast: Jennifer Ashe as Sarah Palin\; Aliana de la Guardia* as Sarah Palin/D
 iane Sawyer\; Amanda Keil as Hillary Clinton/Gwen Ifill/Unnamed Interviewe
