The Story

From The Threepenny Opera to Knickerbocker Holiday, Kurt Weill recorded the sounds and souls of the 20th Century in his incredible music. Stories of courage and cowardie, of love and loss, and of passion and pain were captured in some of the greatest songs of our age. This exciting new revue brings you face to face with a genuine master. Included is music never before presented publicly! A unique theatrical experience.
