One of the most radical and most famous music theater works of the 20th century returns to the stage of the Komische Oper Berlin in a new production by Barrie Kosky and under the musical direction of General Music Director Ainārs Rubiķis - with exceptional tenor Allan Clayton as Jim Mahoney and audience favorite Nadja Mchantaf as Jenny Hill.

Three crooks found the city of Mahagonny in the middle of the desert while fleeing the police. It should be their promised land, a place of utopia and unlimited sin - because nothing less than the sale of love and alcohol should ensure the flow of money. Eat, love, box, drink! But alas, there is no money left to foot the bill... people fleeing slavery, crime or poverty, an empty desert filled with dreams and desires, apocalyptic natural disasters, strict rules and voluptuous excesses

At the same time as Arnold Schönberg's Old Testament opera Moses und Aron , Brecht's and Weill's Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny was writtena work whose references to the books of Moses are more obscure but ultimately unmistakable. Opera and anti-opera at the same time, Mahagonny addresses the pitfalls of human existence using biblical images - carried and driven by Kurt Weill's music, which is as incomparable as it is inimitable in its processing of numerous very different influences and styles of the time.
