Perhaps it was a clown reference, the whole world's a circus or something along those lines...
So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.~Office Space
Maybe it represents eye fungus...erm... to show how dirty and opthalmologically dangerous the world is....

It seemed to also be a framing device. They put it on at the beginning to get into character and took it off at the end when they were just actors again?? Just a guess. May I just add the was the most boring piece of garbage I have ever seen on stage.

Darn it, I knew they should have set Threepenny amongst sixties doo wop...
Maybe they can work some ABBA in there, at least...

it's done as a framework - it's just a simple thing -- nothing too deep... the alienation effect of performing something dramatic for the audience... we come in as ourselves and then we put the make up on and we are our characters...
at the end, when we take it off, it's blurred and we are a mixture of the actor and character... there is no difference and the audience is also a character then
My opinion only, of course: What Brecht and Weill did has enormous potential for a intriguing, provocative, modern production. What is showing at Studio 54 is not that production. On every level--as social commentary, as satire, as irony, as cynicism--it fails. Some very talented actors are wasted on a translation and direction that never fleshes them out as three-dimensional characters and presents not an ounce of comprehensible motivation for what they do. It's not interesting or oringinal, but boring, boring, boring. This is one time I agree with the critics, except I don't think they were harsh enough.
(And am I the only one who thought the costumes looked like they were collected from various regional productions of The Rocky Horror Show?)
