Hilarious book of a mini opera, originally presented in Brussels and as a live television broadcast on Flemish television. The opera’s premise is based on the 1960’s slogan “don’t trust anybody over thirty” as it charts the career of a rock singer, Neil Sky who becomes elected as President of the United States. Sky’s administration forces retirement for anyone over 30, to which they are placed in “reconditioning camps” and given LSD. Sky adopts a young boy who eventually “turns on him” and he runs away from home to join a gang whose intention is to “put everyone over the age of 10 out of business.” Gorgeous book filled with photographs of sets, drawings of characters and a pop-up scene of events. Vive la Revolution!
