Juan la Suerte/ Jean la Chance's biography

The script, which was incomplete and unknown until the late 90´s, was written by Bertolt Brecht in his first period, while living at Baviera, right after writting Baal and just before Drums in the night. He was inspired by the story of Hans in Glück written by the Grimm brothers. His aim was to show the critical insights he had about commerce. Orsoni makes his own version, essentially using music to tell the story and thus, being able to work the scene with a certain distance.
