"A Man of His Times"

A public opinion pollster mysteriously dies and a journalist is sucked into the mystery. Many odd characters are encountered along the way to the play's memorable finale, which combines a wedding celebration with a public execution. Ellis says of his theme song, "A Man of His Times" -- "Kurt Weil gets together with Nino Rota and Ennio Morricone on Holloween. This is a dance macabre, with children's chorus. It is a Holloween waltz."
