THE ROLE OF THE DIE was created at the International Anthony Burgess Foundation in ten days by a team of collaborating artists. The chamber opera follows the story of a group of friends in a coffee shop playing a game of some sort... but the game quickly turns into a murder mystery. Who? Why? Roll the die to find out why.
