Good story which will hit home (it does for me, each time, each cast, each rehearsal, and I am working it [shooting]). This is still a very powerful, emotional story about aspirations, limited options, judgmentalism and generosity, making do with life and going on. It is from the play/book (Jan. 1929) by Elmer Rice (Pulitzerwinner), the music is from Kurt Weill (Tony winner) and lyrics by Langston Hughes. This is in English, spoken and written. The story takes place in two days in a tenement block on the east side of Manhattan. The opera was tried out in 1946 and opened, with changes, on Broadway in January 1947. Choreography was by Anna Sokolow.
