The Beggar’s Opera by John Gay

Friday, April 11, 2025 at 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

£12

“The Beggar’s Opera,” penned by John Gay satirises grand opera and London’s criminal world in 1728. It features highwaymen, dishonest employers, and ‘ladies of the town,’ singing folk tunes that include “Lilliburlero” and “Greensleeves.” These are crooks and repentance is not on the horizon. If there is a happy ending it is snatched from the noose of destiny. The outcome is a humorous satire that remains strikingly relevant nearly 300 years later.
