Content:
Bradley focuses on 'The Mother', Brecht's most overtly political play and the only play which he staged in the Weimar Republic. Analysing archival material, this study explores how Brecht's theatre practice developed, and how it's subsequently been received and challenged by other directors, in and beyond Germany.
