WGXC 90.7-FM: Radio for Open Ears

Produced by many contributors.

This broadcast is presented in conjunction with the opening of the exhibition at Nonchalant gallery, which shares space with the WGXC Catskill Studio at 393 Main Street Catskill, NY 12414.

Dreadful Penny Dreadful is a 6.1 audio video installation, and nearly three hour radio broadcast that dares to violate every remaining shred of “good taste” using the vehicle of Brecht and Weil’s much-abused “Moritat von Mackie Messer,” aka “Mack the Knife.” Over 200 versions collide, taking you from its origins in Weimar Berlin to the multiple travesties of Rat Pack Vegas and the many imitators of each on East Block TV and in cheesey Jersey nightclubs. Further stops along the way include Midwestern High School chorus practice and performances of ivy college a capella groups, not to mention jazz improvisation sessions, talent shows, and rockers doing high Kultur! A splendid time is guaranteed for all. Turn out in person or tune in on WGXC 90.7-FM and wavefarm.org/listen.
