DOUBLE BILL: LES MAMELLES DE TIRÉSIAS + MAHAGONNY SONGSPIEL Music by Francis Poulenc; Libretto by Guillaume Apollinaire (Les Mamelles de Tirésias) Music by Kurt Weill; Text by Bertolt Brecht and Elisabeth Hauptmann (Mahagonny Songspiel) Jose Maria Condemi, director William Langley, alumni guest conductor
The juxtaposition of these two works by contemporaries Francis Poulenc and Kurt Weill highlights two major artistic movements of the first half of the 20th century — surrealism and expressionism. The texts for these compositions are taken from two poet-playwrights, each towering proponents of these styles – Guilliaume Apollinaire of surrealism and Bertolt Brecht of expressionism. Both operas offer sardonic and poignant commentaries on modern society.
Content advisory: This production contains mature themes, including gender identity, political satire, sexual references and critiques of capitalism and social morality.
Estimated run time: 75 minutes Location: Cohen Family Studio Theater Tickets: $25 adult, $15 student, $15 UC faculty/staff, $10 UC student, $5 CCM student; group discounts available.
