The German-born playwright, poet and director, Bertolt Brecht was born in Augsburg, Germany in February 1898. He established himself as a playwright during the 1920s and early 1930s with plays such as BAAL, MAN IS MAN, THE THREEPENNY OPERA and THE MOTHER. In 1933, as Hitler came to power in Germany, Brecht fled to Scandinavia before eventually settling in the USA where he remained until 1947. During the war years, he wrote many of his best known plays, including, THE LIFE OF GALILEO, THE CAUCASIAN CHALK CIRCLE, MOTHER COURAGE AND HER CHILDREN and THE RESISTIBLE RISE OF ARTURO UI. He returned to Europe in 1947 and shortly after his arrival formed the Berliner Ensemble. He died in Berlin on 14th August 1956 but remains a hugely influential theatre practitioner.

Synopsis: | A prologue set in 1945 Berlin shows two sisters whose brother has deserted from the German army and is found hanged: should they risk being seen by the SS cutting his body down? In the play itself Creon becomes a brutal aggressor, who has attacked Argos for the sake of its iron ore. Tiresias, instead of prophesying the future, becomes a pessimistic analyst of the present; while the chorus of elders, always reserved in its attitude, eventually turns against Creon too. | |||||

Synopsis: | Meet Baal. Outsider poet, schizophrenic singer/songwriter, middle-class bum. With an insatiable appetite for sex and booze, Baal lives his life for the moment. From strip joint to sewer he leaves a trail of devastation and recklessly dispensed lyricism in his wake. Bertolt Brecht's first play, Baal, rages with the fire of youth. Nothing escapes young Brecht's burning wit and self-immolating irony here. An anti-hero and cult artist at odds with the world, Baal indulges in fleshy decadence spewing surreal poetry and bawdy libretto. | |||||

A morality masterpiece, The Caucasian Chalk Circle powerfully demonstrates Brecht's pioneering theatrical techniques. This version by Frank McGuinness is published to coincide with the National Theatre's production touring the UK. A servant girl sacrifices everything to protect a child abandoned in the heat of civil war. Order restored, she is made to confront the boy's biological mother in a legal contest over who deserves to keep him. The comical judge calls on an ancient tradition ' the chalk circle ' to resolve the dispute. Who wins? This version by Frank McGuinness was first presented by the National Theatre in 1997 and revived in 2007, opening at the Gulbenkian Theatre, Canterbury, on 8 January. | ||||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Bertolt Brecht. Brecht Estate-approved translation. Selected as the opening work of the 2005 State Theatre of South Australia season. Produced by The Actors' Gang in Los Angeles, USA, for a three month season 2006/7. Winner of the 2005 Adelaide Theatre Guide 'Curtain Call Award for Best Show'. | |||||
Synopsis: | Written by Brecht when he was 24, and translated by me at the same age, Drums in the Night is 'a blistering and beautiful parable that says much about a world at war with terror'. With Anna Balicke's love Kragler having left to fight in WWI five years earlier, her industrialist parents have decided the time has come for her to find a new suitor, namely the well-placed businessman Murk. But on the evening of her begrudging engagement, who should return but the poor soldier thought dead by all. With a Spartacist uprising brewing in the background, and the Schnapps flowing in the fore, the stage is set for all kinds of rebellion. 'A recent translation by Kruckemeyer might return this early work to prominence. Brecht and Kruckemeyer prove ideal collaborators for the Gang& A masterful adaptation of the play'. Jeff Favre, Daily Breeze, Los Angeles. | |||||

Synopsis: | Written on the country estate of Hella Wuolijoki during Brechts time of exile in Finland, The Judith of Shimoda examines the story of a Japanese geisha, Okichi, in late 19th century Japan. Revered as national folklore, Okichi is credited with mending the relationship between Japan and the United States after Japans refusal to enter trade agreements on American terms following the Japanese legislation to open trade with the West. In this play, Brecht analyzes one countrys immediate response to a woman who destined to become a national hero and asks what happened after the heroic deed. | |||||

Synopsis: | A contemporary translation of Brecht's timeless classic on the ethics of progress and the responsibility that comes with knowledge. Directed by the sign Brecht had taped above his typewriter, "Simpler, with more laughter, "this translation reveals a play with humour and political and emotional depth that moves quickly on the page and stage. Brecht's play pushes beyond the story of Galileo that we all know-that of a great scientist prosecuted by the ignorant Church and nobly recanting in order to write his world-changing master work in secret-to question the legend that has emerged around this controversial figure. Completed after the horrors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Brecht's Life of Galileo lays bare the notion of scientific research and progress for its own sake. It proposes a social and ethical responsibility for scientists and intellectuals that remains radical in these days of venture capital science and economic justifications. Forcefully asking what the role of the intellectual and thinker is in relation to power and the status quo, Life of Galileo continues to stand as a vitally important drama. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Bertolt Brecht | |||||
Arguably Brecht's greatest play, A Life of Galileo charts the seventeenth century scientist's extraordinary fight with the church over his assertion that the earth orbits the sun. The figure of Galileo, whose 'heretical' discoveries about the solar system brought him to the attention of the Inquisition, is one of Brecht's more human and complex creations. Temporarily silenced by the Inquisition's threat of torture, and forced to abjure his theories publicly, Galileo continues to work in private, eventually smuggling his work out of the country. Brecht's beautiful depiction of the explosive struggle between scientific discovery and religious fundamentalism is captured masterfully in this new translation by RSC writer-in-residence, Mark Ravenhill. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Brecht presents the vivid and changing scene of Hitler's war machine. There is a worker who only mumbles "Heil Hitlers" and a S.A. man whose suspicion of him is enough to mark him for life. There is an assaulted Jew who did no wrong and a judge who has a tragic inclination to be just. There are a mother and father who have good cause to fear that their son has informed on them. The war machine moves across Europe, bringing ruin and misery everywhere. | |||||

Synopsis: | translation of Bertolt Brecht's 1938 play The Private Life of the Master Race. The play charts the submission of ordinary German citizens to the Nazi party line. Suspicion, fear, and the ever-narrowing parameters of patriotism are all surprisingly relevant in Brecht's response to regimen change in his native Germany in the 1930s. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Bertolt Brecht | |||||
Described by Brecht as 'a gangster play that would recall certain events familiar to us all', The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui is a witty and savage satire of the rise of Hitler recast by Brecht into a small-time Chicago gangster's takeover of the city's greengrocery trade. Using a wide range of parody and pastiche from Al Capone to Shakespeare's Richard III and Goethe's Faust Brecht's compelling parable continues to have relevance wherever totalitarianism appears today. Written during the Second World War in 1941, the play was one of the Berliner Ensemble's most outstanding box-office successes in 1959, and has continued to attract a succession of major actors, including Leonard Rossiter, Christopher Plummer, Antony Sher and Al Pacino. | ||||||

Synopsis: | Chicago in the 1930s, the Great Depression - a time of unemployment, fear and corruption, and the perfect time for a small-fry crime boss and his henchmen to make it big, to seize a greater power, an absolute power. Arturo Ui and his mob of gangsters run protection rackets for both workers and businesses. Soon Ui's menacing shadow looms large, from the markets, to the docks and across the city itself. You might be with him, you might be against him - it certainly seems you can't stop him. Arturo Ui is a sharp and thrilling parable of the rise of Hitler shot through with razor-sharp wit. | |||||

Described by Brecht as 'a gangster play that would recall certain events familiar to us all', Arturo Ui is a witty and savage satire of the rise of Hitler - recast by Brecht into a fictional, small-time Chicago gangster's takeover of the city's greengrocery trade in the 1930s. The satirical allegory combines Brecht's Epic style of theatre with black comedy and overt didacticism. Using a wide range of parody and pastiche - from Al Capone to Shakespeare's Richard III and Goethe's Faust - Brecht's compelling parable continues to have relevance wherever totalitarianism appears today. Written during the Second World War in 1941, the play was one of the Berliner Ensemble's most outstanding box-office successes in 1959, and has continued to attract a succession of major actors, including Leonard Rossiter, Christopher Plummer, Antony Sher and Al Pacino. | ||||||
