Step into the shadowy underworld of the 1920s at our extravagant gala, inspired by the iconic Threepenny Opera, with music by Kurt Weill and a libretto by Bertolt Brecht. Join us for an unforgettable evening where the lines between high society and the criminal underworld blur in a spectacular fusion of music, drama, and decadence. Set against the backdrop of a lavishly transformed grand ballroom, the night will be filled with enchanting performances that pay homage to Kurt Weill’s haunting melodies and Bertolt Brecht’s biting social commentary.

VENUE

Originally opened in the 1930s as the Grand Ballroom of the adjacent Edison Hotel, The Edison Ballroom re-opened in 2008 after an extensive renovation that preserved its original fair and art deco style. Located in the heart of Manhattan, only steps away from Times Square, this multi-level venue is capable of hosting any kind of private event: weddings, Bar & Bat Mitzvahs, holiday parties, red carpet fashion shows, large corporate events and business conferences. With a superb in-house catering menu prepared by celebrity chef Mina Newman and the experienced guide of owner Allan Wartski, The Edison Ballroom is keeping alive a tradition that started decades ago and continues to provide the perfect environment for all occasions.
