FlopHAUS Cabaret is a cabaret style social satire inspired by the famously provocative 'ThreePenny Opera' and the legendary Kurt Weill, Lotte Lenya, and Bertolt Brecht. Defiantly as sharp as Mack the Knife's blade, this raw dark comedy includes nineteen original and contemporary adaptations of Weill's works, such as 'Pimp Ballad’, 'Moon of Alabama', 'Je ne t'aime pas', and ‘Pirate Jenny’. In the tradition of the witty yet politically dissonant 'ThreePenny Opera', FlopHAUS Cabaret not only entertains but cunningly challenges hypocrisy, corruption and moral ambiguity in society with a sharp sense of humor. Expressed through theater, dance, jazz, and opera, this multi-media production is performed by over 35 national, regional and Charlotte-based actors, dancers, musicians, and singers. The show is intended for mature audiences.

For the second time CTTC is giving focus to the origin of theatre productions by beginning at the beginning with the playwright. The work of the playwright is central to the world of theatre. They are the originator, interpreter, and voice of individual communities and institutions. Playwrights have the power to write stories that reflect and shape our culture. Through their writing, they introduce audiences to new ideas, perspectives, and experiences, challenge societal norms, and encourage critical thinking.

For two weekends CTTC will shine a spotlight on two different playwrights, presenting a directed and rehearsed reading of their play. This unique event offers audiences a rare opportunity to witness fresh, original stories from voices in our own community.
