The Story Wherein
mathematical wunderkind, Miss Polly Peachum, descends most egregiously into
the netherworld of villainous scoundrels captained by the nefarious Macheath.
A macabre, post-modern gothic tale of innocence lost and wisdom gained.

Imminent, Indeed (or Polly Peachum’s Peculiar Penchant for Plosives): It’s a familiar story,
the one about a mercurial con-artist named Macheath who seduces his way
through For this tenth annual
Fringe Festival, we’ve cooked up a tale of sublime treachery and clever
deception, of innocence lost and sagacity gained, of a wicked bastard named
Macheath and his lovely prey, Polly Peachum . . . as told from a distinctly
feminine perspective. You might barely recognize it, but we assure you, ain’t
nothing crazier then a bunch of women making a net to capture a mastadon. Which is to say, rather impoliticly, femininity has its own
particular brand of ferocity, and Polly Peachum’s world is only just
expanding. |
