Die Drei Groschen Rockoper

Artie Award winners, writer Matthew LaChiusa, and Musical Director, Billy Horn's, story, lyrics and power-punk music adaptation of "Three Penny Opera" entitled Die Dreigroschen Rockoper.

This tricked out completely revised production has LaChiusa translating the original book with lyrics from the Public Domain version of Brecht's "Three Penny Opera", then writing a completely different narrative (and ending *hint hint*) on Brecht's longstanding burlesque standard. With composer (and Rock God) , Billy Horn, both have reconstructed a wild-ass revised story and created a modern power-punk-pop musical. This is not your Bobby Darin's "Mack the Knife" swinging, feel good time, version cleaned up for your Aunt Nancy and the Disneyites.

This is a raw and timely production that is needed in times like these.
