DESCRIPTION
Mahagonny: a place without limits. A metropolis where seemingly anything goes… Welcome to Mahagonny’ is a darkly compelling online drama spanning video, web content and social media. It was commissioned by Sky Arts as an parallel online companion piece to a radical new production of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill’s satirical opera ‘The Rise and Fall of The City of Mahagonny’, set to debut in Dublin in June 2014. The drama follows the unfolding stories of two new heroes in Mahagonny: Paul, a naïve young writer commissioned by an online travel company to find the city and Kurt, the brilliant but unstable journalist he has been instructed to find there. As their stories begin to entwine, a high-stakes game will play out with both of their destinies on the line and the future of the city at stake.
