Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny

A new production of this 20th-century masterpiece by Brecht and Weill is being staged by the great Greek theatre director –and former Artistic Director of the National Theatre of Greece– Yannis Houvardas. He returns to the Greek National Opera to present the “golden city of our dreams that crumbles to dust and is effaced before our very eyes”– a political take on the work, with “moments of exasperation and despair”.

The work traces the rise and fall of a city built for profit and pleasure, and is a critique of the capitalist system, as considered from within the ideological framework of inter-war Germany’s Weimar Republic.
