| Description |
Across the giant canvas of Europe at war, Bertolt Brecht paints the indomitable figure of Mother Courage surviving and destroying as she buys and sells her wares, her friends and finally her children. Combining incident, irony, song and legend, Brecht's classic drama is one of the most powerful theatre experiences of the century. |
