Mother Courage and Her Children

By Bertolt Brecht
Directed by Andy Hinds

As the war is breaking out a woman ventures onto the street with her three children. She wants to make a profit from the war by trading with soldiers. As an anti-war play, things did not go the way the mother hoped, and the effects of war begin to set in.

“
a tingling first night…the tiny stage throbbed with life and movement in Andy Hind’s gripping production…another signal success for Druid
”
Evening Herald
“
lively, fluid, absorbing and constantly entertaining, and att the same time hard, sharp and distanced … triumphantly reinforces Druid’s position as the most important theatre company in the country
”
In Dublin
