Overview:
The Catalan collective La Fura dels Baus presents a searing new production of Kurt Weill's Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny at Madrid's Teatro Real. Composed in the 1930s by Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht, this is a mordant parody on capitalism and the relentless industrialisation of a society where the ultimate criminal is lack of money. The authors relate the narrative of Mahagonny, a city lost in the desert and ruled by three thugs; food, sex, gambling, and violence reign supreme in Mahagonny.Released: 2011-11-15
