Music by KURT WEILL
Book & Lyrics by BERTOLD BRECHT
English adaptation by MARC BLITZSTEIN
In the Victorian underworld of beggars, prostitutes and crooks, Macheath (‘Mack the Knife’) thrives on opportunism and sexual magnetism whilst leading his fear driven ensemble of dastardly thieves.
Brecht's caustic text and Weill’s distinctive, jazzy songs reveal a society where honour is fleeting and corruption thrives. The central characters are colourful, shallow and seedy, always on the look out to make a financial gain, regardless of whom they betray along the way.
