Happy Birthday, Jake Heggie! May your celebration be as legendary and lively as the opening night applause of "Dead Man Walking." Your operas have kept audiences laughing, crying—and occasionally debating ethics during intermission—for decades. Perhaps today you can compose an aria titled “Eating Cake is Never a Crime”—it surely would become another masterpiece!Cheers to the composer whose work shines timelessly on stages worldwide from haunting dramas like "The End of The Affair" to powerful portrayals that emerge victorious at every curtain call. Here’s hoping your special day hits all the high notes without any tragic endings—only comedic timing allowed!
