GROWING UP WITH ATTICUS


VST launches the theatre’s centennial season with the world premiere of a new play by Mary Badham and Cecilia Peck, daughter of Gregory Peck. Growing up With Atticus explores the legacy of To Kill a Mockingbird and the power of art to effect change. Through personal stories, film clips, and live conversation, they reflect on the man behind the role and the values that continue to resonate across generations. Both nostalgic and deeply moving, this event celebrates storytelling, legacy, and the enduring power of empathy.

A vintage-style poster for "The 3 Penny Opera" shows a man in a black suit, white shirt, black bow tie, and black bowler hat, holding a noose. The background features elaborate floral and scroll designs in earthy tones. The title and credits are prominently displayed in stylized typography.

THE THREEPENNY OPERA


The Threepenny Opera is a sharp and stylish satire that revolutionized musical theatre in the 1920’s by exposing the underbelly of society through the exploits of the charmingly corrupt Macheath. Set to Kurt Weill’s iconic, jazz-infused score, this darkly comic tale of crime, power, and morality blurs the line between respectability and vice. Bold, biting, and theatrically daring, it remains as provocative as ever. 

Play by Bertolt Brecht
