The Threepenny Opera

 Enter into a seamy underworld of hoodlums, beggars and prostitutes that make up a captivating world of salacious cynicism and merry anarchy. The Threepenny Opera asks the question, “Who’s the bigger criminal, the man who robs a bank or the man who founds a bank?” At the center of this sensational story is amoral and anti-heroic Mack the Knife – lover, murderer and criminal mastermind. Things go awry after Mack marries Polly Peachum, daughter of the king of beggars, and her disapproving father sets out to have Mack hanged.

A jazz inspired look at a criminal mastermind. Featuring an all-star cast and the celebrated Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra led by James Caraher.
