DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>By Bertolt Brecht<br />Music by Kurt Weill<br />Directed by Brian Richmond<br /><br />&ldquo;You may proclaim, good sirs, your fine philosophy, But till you feed us, right and wrong can wait!&rdquo; - Bertolt Brecht from The Threepenny Opera<br /><br />Part biting satire and part sheer theatrical innovation, this iconic work by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill is a landmark of modern theatre. Borrowing from the 18th-century The Beggar&rsquo;s Opera, Brecht takes aim at the traditional bourgeoisie, revealing a society where law is fickle, money corrupts, and crime pays. This musical saga follows the villainous but irresistible Mack the Knife (and his marauding thieves) as he marries the impressionable and innocent Polly Peachum &ndash; much to the displeasure of her parents &ndash; while continuing his ilicit relationship with his mistress, Pirate Jenny.<br /><br />Recommended for ages 13 and up.<br /><br />SHOW TIMES<br /><br />Performances at 8 pm: October 3 - 7, 10 - 14, 17 - 21<br />Matinee at 2 pm: October 21<br />Performance with pre-show lecture at 7 pm: October 6<br /><br />TICKETS<br /><br />Adult: $25<br />Senior: $20<br />Student/Child: $15<br />Weekend Evenings: $25<br />(All seats on Friday and Saturday evenings)<br />UVic Alumni: Pay student prices when you attend on Saturday matinee<br />Preview evenings (all seats): $7.50<br /><br />Tickets can be purchased by phone at 250-721-8000 with a credit card or in person at the Phoenix Box Office, located inside the <a href="http://finearts.uvic.ca/theatre/contacts/Maps_n_directions.html">Phoenix Building</a> on UVic campus.<br /><br />Visit the UVic Phoenix Theatre web site for information about <a href="http://finearts.uvic.ca/theatre/phoenix/tickets/season_subscriptions.html">subscribing</a> to the 2015-2016 season.</p>
