Brecht’s powerful anti-war play finds Mother Courage and her three children struggling for survival during the Thirty Years War. The play blends pathos and dark humour to tell of how Mother Courage lives on her wits to keep the family alive, before making the ultimate sacrifice.
Mother Courage And Her Children is widely considered to be among Brecht’s most powerful work.
