and critic who writes about the way the play caught
Loners attention.
"In many ways, Lortel was more of a landlord
than a producer, but it was her theater that showed
the revival for seven years — at that time the
longest-running musical performed Off Broadway."
Greene explains how Lortel, who established

She is memorialized through the Lucille Lortel
Awards, presented annually to honor the best play
and musical of the Off Broadway season.
Lucille Lortel pro-

longest-running O

original folk music, which is available at:

self-produced recordings Pegboard Blues and River
Mouth while staying in Ann Arbor to prepare for
the play.
"I think Weill and Brecht wanted to change the-
ater the way others want to change society," Kahn
says. "I love the music and find it a change from
what I've been performing on guitar and piano. El
