The Threepenny Opera, by Elizabeth Hauptmann, Bertolt Brecht, and Kurt Weill, was originally produced in Berlin in 1928. After a 1933 Broadway production bombed, it was re-translated by Marc Blitzstein for a smash Off-Broadway 1953 production that helped to create Off-Broadway theatre as we know it today.
