It focuses on the feud between Macheath- an amoral criminal – and his father in law, a racketeer who controls and exploits London’s beggars and is intent on having Macheath hanged. Despite the resistance by Macheath’s friend the Chief of Police, Macheath is eventually condemned to hang until in a comic reversal the queen pardons him and grants him a title and land.
