John Gay’s speech for ‘the beggar’ at the start of The Beggars Opera is a perfect summary of the librettist’s intent and philosophy for the ensuing work and one that I have strived to maintain in this reworking of the original text. “I hope I may be forgiven, that I have not made my Opera throughout unnatural, like those in vogue for I have no Recitative excepting this, as I have consented to have neither Prologue nor Epilogue, it must be allowed an Opera in all its Forms.” I own myself of the Company of Beggars and I make one at their Weekly Festivals at St. “If Poverty be a Title to Poetry, I am sure nobody can dispute mine.
