Threepenny Opera
Onsdag den 25/05/2022 20:00
| ENG HumanLab presents its students from VIA University Drama Lab performing in “Threepenny Opera” by Bertold Brecht. The Threepenny Opera is one of the best known theatre plays in the world. Set in London during the Victorian Age the play is a biting satire of the post-war rise of capitalism, told with a lot of irony and animated by jazz music intermezzos. The play tells the story of Macheath (Mack the Knife), a debonair crime lord on the verge of turning his illegal empire into a legitimate business. When Macheath marries young Polly Peachum, her father is enraged. Jonathan Peachum controls the beggars of London, and he strives to get Macheath hanged. Unfortunately for him, the chief of police is an old friend of Macheath’s. Nevertheless, Peachum exerts considerable political influence, and eventually Macheath is arrested and imprisoned. He escapes, only to become imprisoned once more. Luckily, a hard-riding messenger from the Queen arrives at the last minute to pardon Macheath and to issue him a baronetcy. The show will be played in English! DANSK HumanLab præsenterer sine studerende fra VIA University Drama Lab, der optræder i “Threepenny Opera” af Bertold Brecht. Threepenny Opera er et af de bedst kendte teaterstykker i verden. Udspillet i London under den victorianske tidsalder er stykket en bidende satire over kapitalismens fremgang efter krigen, fortalt med en masse ironi og animeret af jazzmusikintermezzoer. Stykket fortæller historien om Macheath (Mack the Knife), en kriminel herre på randen af at forvandle sit illegale imperium til en legitim forretning. Da Macheath gifter sig med den unge Polly Peachum, bliver hendes far rasende. Jonathan Peachum kontrollerer Londons tiggere, og han stræber efter at få Macheath hængt. Desværre for ham er politimesteren en gammel ven af Macheath. Ikke desto mindre udøver Peachum betydelig politisk indflydelse, og til sidst bliver Macheath arresteret og fængslet. Han flygter, kun for at blive fængslet igen. Heldigvis ankommer en hårdtgående budbringer fra dronningen i sidste øjeblik for at benåde Macheath og udstede ham en baronetat. Forestillingen foregår på engelsk!
