Mother Courage and Her Children

Mother Courage and Her Children

Work:: Mother Courage and Her Children (S4267)

With war raging all around her, Mother Courage sells food and clothing to soldiers, switching allegiance when it suits her and striving to keep her business and children alive at all costs. Bloody battlefields are her marketplace, her wagon, her stall. Her remarkable and brutal story is told through humour and song; her story is one of choices and remains a powerful reminder of human resilience and loss in times of war. An epic masterpiece of one woman's survival.
Author Bertolt Brecht

Production:: (T01893101239)

Final year students from Northumbria University's BA (Hons) Performance programme present two new productions: Mother Courage and her Children, by Bertolt Brecht, translated by Lee Hall and directed by Fiona McPherson, and In The Middle of the West, written and directed by Steve Gilroy. Accompanying the performances will be a cabaret of work in Stage 3, showcasing the excellence of the BA (Hons) Drama and BA (Hons) Drama and Scriptwriting courses.
