Theatre: Mother Courage and Her Children by Bertolt Brecht

Truly “epic” in its scope, Mother Courage and Her Children combines a deeply moving examination of human frailty with a provocative call to arms for social change — one that has only intensified in relevance in the almost 80 years since it was first staged. This vivid reimagining of Brecht’s masterpiece explores the distance between those who participate in war, those who profit from it, and those who consume its drama … that is, the audience.
