The opera's four acts include Act I "Los ABCs Aquí: Vivan los Muertos!" an animated primer on war and empire; Act II ”Deadtime Stories with Mariachi Goose and Friends" is an animation that re-examines Mother Goose children's rhymes and culminates with the great fall of Humpty Mariachi Dumpty; Act III "¡Radio Muerto!" an animation of a skeleton traveling the road to Mictlan (the Aztec underworld) while listening to the radio; Act IV ”DNN: Dead News Network," a dead animated newscast exploring the silencing of dissent in the corporate news media.
