Belvoir St Theatre: LoveMusik
25 June @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm AEST

Neglected Musicals will present LoveMusik from June 24, in the Downstairs Theatre at Belvoir for limited shows
Featuring the music of Kurt Weill across all of his career, LoveMusik follows the lives of the unlikeliest of lovers – the brilliant, intellectual German composer Kurt Weill and a lusty girl from the streets of Vienna who became his muse and star, Lotte Lenya. With a book by Alfred Uhry (Pulitzer Prize winner, Driving Miss Daisy), LoveMusik is an epic romance, set in Berlin, Paris, Broadway and Hollywood, spanning 25 years in the lives of this complicated couple. From their courtship and early collaborations in Europe, through their journey to America and the debut of the landmark musical The Threepenny Opera, LoveMusik gets deep inside this fascinating partnership. The musical features some of Weill’s best-loved songs, including Speak Low, Surabaya Johnny, It Never Was You, Mack the Knife, September Song, and Pirate Jenny.
