The Threepenny Opera (Die Dreigroschenoper) was a revolutionary piece of musical theatre adapted from an 18th-century English Opera by German dramatist Bertolt Brecht in collaboration with the translator Elizabeth Hauptmann and the composer Kurt Weill in 1928.//It directly challenges the audience by breaching the "fourth wall" with what Brecht called Verfremdungseffekt, or "alienation technique." For example, slogans are projected on the back wall and the characters sometimes carry picket signs, or stand at times with their backs to the audience. The play challenges conventional notions of property as well as theater. It asks the central rhetorical question, "Who is the bigger criminal: He who robs a bank or he who founds one?"The Threepenny Opera is actually one of the first instances of the modern musical comedy. The score, by Kurt Weill, was deeply influenced by jazz, and in fact mandates a fifteen-piece jazz combo. The opening song, "Die Morität von Mackie Messer", was translated by Marc Blitzstein into English as "Mack the Knife" and became a swing standard, made most famous in a version by Bobby Darin.The opera is based on the English poet John Gay's 1728 operatic satire, The Beggar's Opera - set in London's Soho. The central character in both is MacHeath, who is an elegant highwayman in Gay's work and a vicious and violent anti-heroic criminal who sees himself as a businessman in the Brecht-Weill version. In homage to the earlier work, the opening number of the First Act , Morgenchoral des Peachum, is set to the music used in Gay's original
