PITTSBURGH OPERA PRESENTS PITTSBURGH
DEBUT OF HEARTFELT CONTEMPORARY SATIRE
THE LAST AMERICAN HAMMER
Milcom Negley, a one-man militia, rages against the tyranny of federal overreach.
He is hunkered down in a rural Toby Jug museum in a rust belt Ohio town where Tink
Enraught, a mannered curatrix, offers him tea and cookies.
Milcom is a “Thirteenther”–a conspiracy theorist who believes an obscure, would-
be Thirteenth amendment negates the authority of our government. He occupies the
museum because it is the only place left in his failed town to receive federal funds–a grant
for the upkeep of a rare 17th-century British pitcher known as “Sir Oswyn.”
Although Milcom expects to be swarmed by military drones, attention is paid only
by Agent Reyes, a young rookie FBI field specialist. Milcom explains that the town’s
only major source of employment–a hammer manufacturer–has gone under, leaving the
residents lost. He is armed with “The Last American Hammer” to roll off the plant’s line
and intends to hold a proxy trial against the US government using Toby jugs as physical
stand-ins for a court.
“The Last American Hammer” will star current and former Pittsburgh Opera Resident
Artists, and be performed in the intimate environs of Pittsburgh Opera Headquarters,
2425 Liberty Avenue. Limited capacity.
The opera is sung in English with supertitles projected above the stage.
“The Last American Hammer” was commissioned by UrbanArias with very generous
support from Dan and Gloria Logan; and an anonymous admirer of UrbanArias in
memory of Deborah Brewer. n
