Kurt Weill's The Threepenny Opera Gets a New Website as it Opens on Broadway

Apr. 01, 2006

With the opening on Broadway this month of the new Roundabout Theater production of Kurt Weill's and Bertolt Brecht's The Threepenny Opera, we are proud to announce, along with The Kurt Weill Foundation, the debut of a new comprehensive website dedicated to this landmark work of the musical stage. Test your knowledge of Threepenny trivia by taking the "Quiz" (both easy and expert versions available!), listen to audio files and learn about the creators, the original productions, the history and development of the work and much more. 

The Threepenny Opera opens on April 20, 2006 at Studio 54 in New York City and features Alan Cumming, Jim Dale, Ana Gasteyer, Cyndi Lauper, and Nellie McKay. Scott Elliott directs and Wallace Shawn's new English translation sees its first outing with these performances.
