Description

A milestone of 20th century musical theater, The Threepenny Opera rolls on unstoppably into the 21st with absolute relevance in today's world. In their opera "by and for beggars," composer Kurt Weill and playwright Bertolt Brecht transformed saccharine, old-fashioned opera and operetta forms, incorporating a sharp political perspective and the sound of 1920s Berlin dance bands and cabaret. This musical saga of the villainous but irresistible Mack the Knife and his marauding band of thieves is a revolutionary musical theatre piece, inspiring such hits as Cabaret as well as Urinetown, The Musical.
