About this title: The libretto to an opera written with composer Daron Aric Hagen, BANDANNA is the story of illegal Mexican immigrants looking for refuge in Texas, where they encounter shady policemen--some of whom are helpful, some of whom are treacherous--and a web of sexual jealousy and corruption that ends up snuffing out the lives of several of the characters. Muldoon's story is a sort of OTHELLO of the border-town, and it premiered in February 1999 at the University of Texas at Austin.
