Peachum. A three-penny opera

Written, directed and performed by Fausto Paravidino, “Peachum. A three-bit opera ", is on stage on the Apollo stage. The show, freely inspired by Bertolt Brecht's "Threepenny Opera", has in Rocco Papaleo its tragic protagonist, Peachum, king of Brecht's beggars.

The histrionic Lucanian actor gives life to an anti-hero, a man governed by money, a current character, like the original text in which we read a criticism of society. "In this new threepenny Opera called Peachum", writes Paravidino, "what happens in John Gay's Opera in 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' and in Shakespeare's 'Othello' and in many fairy tales. A father takes his daughter away. The father wants her back. Brecht tells us he wants it back because his property has been taken. Nothing else ".

Between adventures and misadventures Peachum will try to take back his daughter, staging the "misery of the poor, the misery of those who want to get rich, the misery of those who are afraid of becoming poor".
