Mack the Knife

Berlin, the late 1920’s… a time of decadence, despair and joie de vivre.

A young Jewish composer, Kurt Weill, meets his muse, singer Lotte Lenya, and falls in love. He collaborates with playwright Bertolt Brecht on what they both consider a ‘bit of a potboiler’. As The Threepenny Opera delights audiences across Europe, a new barbarism is erupting which will change everyone’s lives forever.

• Lunchtime and evening performances.
