Another one-act opera this week! This is a radio opera that was written specifically to be broadcast on the radio. This story follows two shy characters who are too scared to tell each other their feelings or even say hi to one another. Both characters end up passing out, one from being hit in the head, and the other from seeing him being hit in the head. In their stupor, they confess their feelings to the wrong people. Will they be able to get out of this crazy situation or stay with the wrong people forever?
