GHOST PATROL an opera in four scenes by Stuart MacRae with a libretto by Louise Welsh Dramatis Personae: Sam (tenor)

An ex-army sergeant in his thirties, who has fallen on hard times

Alasdair (baritone)

An ex-army captain in his thirties; proprietor of the pub where the action takes place; Vicki’s boyfriend

Vicki (soprano)

An aspiring singer in her late twenties or early thirties; Alasdair’s girlfriend

Setting:

The opera is set in a contemporary British city five years from now. The country is at war in a distant land, but it’s business as usual at home. There are no bombs or armed combat in the streets, but images of the conflict and its victims dominate TV news reports. The opera takes place entirely in the barroom of Alasdair’s chichi gastro-pub. The hostelry is equipped with all the usual comforts, a well-stocked bar flanked by high stools, a flat screen TV, a few tables and chairs and a comfortable looking couch. A vase of spring flowers sits on the bar. A pair of French doors opens out onto a beer garden, where a tree is heavy with blossom. The far wall is decorated with a poster advertising Vicki’s forthcoming performance. It shows Vicki in dress uniform, her cap tipped at a jaunty angle.

[ Lights up. Some time has passed since that first night and small changes have taken place in the pub. The flower arrangement on the bar is composed of autumnal blooms. The large portrait of Vicki now shows her in combat gear, her mouth set in the same shining smile, her cap tipped at the same jaunty angle as before. Beyond the French windows, the tree in the beer garden sheds russet leaves (this may begin during the previous transition). It’s early evening. Sam springs into business, tying a black apron around his waist, setting to polishing glasses and slicing lemons. ]

[ Lights up. It is the morning after the night before. The tree in the beer garden is bare. Alasdair is sitting at one of the tables going over accounts. Although it’s early, a glass of whisky sits next to a half empty bottle beside his ledgers. Sam climbs up from the cellar, wearing a drayman’s apron and carrying a crate of beer. A vase of poppies sits on the bar and both Alasdair and Sam wear red poppies in their lapels. Vicki enters dressed in jeans and a T-shirt. A poppy is stuck in her disarrayed hair and a duster hangs from her back pocket. She looks at Sam. Sexual tension crackles between them. Vicki half-heartedly starts cleaning. Sam descends back down to the cellar. He makes the trip several times, trying to ignore the domestic drama playing out in the bar. ]
