About the Suite: Abraham Rattner fully conceived the characters inhabited by John Gay's The Beggar's Opera of 1728. While the ballad opera is a musical play that includes elements of formal opera, it also employs satire to denounce politics, poverty and injustice. For example, it focuses on the theme of corruption at all levels of society. In the 20th century, The Threepenny Opera is an adaptation of Gay's The Beggar’s Opera written by Bertolt Brecht in 1928.Samuel Beckett: "I looked at this portfolio and found Abe Rattner's work very beautiful and moving. All I can say is that I loved it." Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
