SWISS PREMIERE Psychoanalysis as a Broadway Show Spectacular: Torn between various magazine covers, men, and life plans, successful fashion editor-in-chief Liza Elliott stumbles headlong into burnout. She places herself in the hands of a psychoanalyst and lays her dreams on the dissecting table. In Kurt Weill's 1941 Broadway musical, Liza Elliott's dream world becomes a frenetic revue spectacle with a full symphony orchestra. Following his successful production of "La Cage aux Folles" at the Theater Basel, Martin G. Berger directs the Swiss premiere. Singer and actress Delia Mayer plays the lead role alongside Stefan Kurt.
