*Mother Courage* was first performed in Zurich in 1941 and is often seen as
Brecht's greatest work. Remaining a powerful indictment of war and social
injustice, it is an epic drama set during the Thirty Years' War. The plot
follows the resilient Mother Courage who survives by running a commissary
business that profits from all sides. As the war claims all of her children
in turn, the play poignantly demonstrates that no one can profit from the
war without being subject to its terrible cost also.


*“The translation, by American playwright Tony Kushner, is fast-moving,
articulate, and reaches the heart of Brecht's reasonings"  -Daily Express**The
play received its American premiere at The Cleveland Playhouse in 1958!
