John Gay, David Turner, Roy Darby
John Gay's famous "opera of the people" has been adapted for modern use. All the essential ingredients of the story are there-- Macheath's love of women and Polly's and Lucy's fight over him; Peachum's selling of Macheath to the law; Macheath's escape and re-capture and his eventual pardon so a happy ending can be achieved. The settings are simple without complicated set changes.
