Marc Blitzstein, Bertolt Brecht, and Kurt Weill’s 'The Three Penny Opera' stands as a towering, record-shattering titan of the 20th-century avant-garde stage, running for an astonishing 2,707 performances during its historic 1954 Off-Broadway flagship premiere revival at the Theatre de Lys. Translating the dark capitalistic critique and syncopated jazz-infused pentatonic score of the Weimar-era masterpiece into an unvarnished English adaptation, the plot charts the unprincipled gangster Macheath.
