Mother Courage and Her Children

Pittsburgh City Paper: "I hate to say this, but I'm coming around to the belief that maybe the work of Bertolt Brecht is no longer producible. And that makes nobody sadder than me, because I do love him and what he was trying to do. His 'theatre of alienation' -- in which sentimentality is ruthlessly rejected in favor of intelligence -- is, in a world gone mad with 'feelings,' a blast of fresh air. But considering the number of Brecht shows I've seen over the years, and how few of them actually worked, Brecht might be one of those artists better on the page than the stage."
