| Berlin to Broadway |
Berlin to Broadway is a joyous, comic, and moving celebration of one of the 20th century's most innovative popular composers, Kurt Weill. This fully costumed and staged revue features songs from a dozen of his musicals, from The Threepenny Opera to the comedy, style, and swing of Lady in the Dark, to soaring melodies, lush with love and longing, from Lost in the Stars.
Four singing actors, led by a narrator, take the audience on a musical voyage from pre-World War II Germany to Broadway's golden age, through the music of this most extraordinary composer. The songs are presented in rough chronological order to aid in creating a biographical portrait of composer, Kurt Weill. The popular song, "Mack the Knife," headlines a fantastic selection of tunes that blur the boundary between the "serious" and "popular" music of the theatre.
