The Threepenny Opera, made practically from the "waste beneath our feet," still appears, and should appear, expensive due to its presentation to the audience. In other words, the poor have decided to stage a "theater" out of their poverty. Thanks to the opera's form, a new perspective on so-called "misery" emerges.
The performance was staged by students of the Film School, including a live orchestra. The production featured three stages resembling street theater. Each stage was adorned with a white curtain-screen, onto which pre-recorded and live videos were projected. In the "execution" scene, all three curtains fall, leaving behind three bare gallows.
