The Threepenny Opera (Polly Peachum)
"
Maya Kherani as Polly Peachum, the waif-style heroine, offered a full-throated and rich soprano display. Plaintive and poignant, she persuaded in almost every aria, showing that she was not only up to the task of reckoning sympathy, she too could bite. Nobody’s fool, Polly, Kherani more than made her point. No classic girl done wrong here; if we expected that, we were happily disavowed.
