Current Production

Mother Courage and Her Children

Directed by Joseph Megel
Adaptation by David Hare
Music By Johnathan Dove

October 24 to November 16

The Justice Theater Project is opening its fourth season of acclaimed performances with a classic piece, Bertolt Brecht's 'Mother Courage and Her Children.' Part drama, part musical, this play entertains and engages the audience while following the life of Mother Courage and her three children. This epic piece is considered a theatrical experience that critically and objectively assesses the effects of war. What impact does war have on the least among us? Who and how does it exploit? The play will resonate with contemporary audiences, connecting current political policy and situations to the historical context within which Brecht set this classic piece. The intent of the piece was to show the dreadfulness of war and the loss of virtue in corrupt times. In the decades since its debut, the play has grown to be regarded as one of the twentieth century’s landmark dramas and a potent condemnation of war.
