Whoever has money has power. And whoever doesn't will find it difficult to build a fortune. This was already the case in 1837 in London's Soho or in Brecht's Berlin - and it is no different today. Life without capitalism is no longer imaginable, and in a self-corrupting system, everything has become a commodity - love, morality, and misery. Businessmen and the police are just as criminal and devoid of morals as criminals and beggars - there is no distinction between the bourgeoisie and the crooks. The top and the bottom of society merge seamlessly into one another. What connects them is money, and good business probably justifies any immoral behavior.

The Threepenny Opera

Theater Bonn Opera House

Telling each other stories can be encouraging. It can distract from everyday life, from all the things that sometimes make life so difficult. Jonathan Löwe knows this too. That's why he tells his seriously ill little brother Karl, nicknamed "Krümel," stories about the land of Nangijala. Because that's where you go when you die. Nangijala is a fairytale land, Jonathan promises. A land full of legends and stories and, above all, a place where you experience nothing but adventures all day long. But completely unexpectedly, Jonathan dies before his brother when he saves Krümel from a burning house.
