Music for Threepenny Kxceptionul Keccntly Mare BliUstein lamented, "I wish I had written The Threepenny Opera. But since I merely translated it into English and adapted it for American audiences. I can come right out and say freely the work is u miracle, a phenonmenon, a shining landmark in the history of the musical theater." "The Threepenny Opera," to be produced in five performances by the Center's Resident Theater starting March 3. features the masterful, syncopated scoring of Kurt WeiH. The music has an interesting, curious and appealing lilt with permeating plaintiveness, combining the oompah of the German beer hall and the new American jazz with the classical dissonance of a disoriented world, staled a recent press release jn a New York paper commenting on its seven year off.Broadway run. "The Threepenny Opera," to be presented to Omaha audiences for the first time, features a cast of over 20, and tells a rowdily, raucous, uproaringly amusing story through the eyes of beggars, thieves, and corrupt officials. The production will feature sets and costumes designed by Mrs. Harold Gifford. choreography by Einaleen Skinner, musical direction by Mary I.evine and overall direction by Al DiMauro. Tickets for the production are in limited supply for each performance with tickets being said at Brandeis and the Jewish Community Center. Arlene Fredericks is in charge of ticket sales. A capacity audience is expected for each performance.
