The Great Poets Society is a multicultural theatre ensemble\u00a0based at the University of Luxembourg bringing great literature to the stage.<\/p>

In this context, it will be putting on a performance of \u00ab\u00a0Mother Courage and Her Children\u00a0\u00bb. The play was written by Bertolt Brecht, translated by David Hare and abridged by Natalie Werle.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Directed by Natalie Werle, the production is supported by Espace Cultures at the University of Luxembourg and features\u00a0Veronica Badea, Agnes Darabos, Philip Dutton, Aymeric Fouquier d’Herouel, Kamil Grzyb, Valerie Scott, Daniel Siemsgl\u00fc\u00df, Jan Thoemel and Michele Tigori.<\/p>

Considered by critics to be one of the greatest plays of the 20th century,\u00a0\u201cMother Courage\u201d\u00a0chronicles the story of Anna Fierling (named \u201cCourage\u201d) and her children as they struggle to survive in wartime, selling provisions from a canteen wagon. Despite their bravery, honesty and kindness, one by one she loses her children to the war.<\/strong><\/p>

\u201cWar, which is a continuation of business by other means,\u201d Brecht wrote, \u201cmakes the human virtues fatal even to their possessors.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

The play is a powerful example of Brecht\u2019s Epic Theatre, a revolutionary stagecraft.<\/strong><\/p>

Running time: 1 hour 15 minutes.<\/p>

The venue is accessible by car or by public transport (bus line 110 \/ 111 to Berdorf, then a 15-minute walk to the amphitheatre).<\/p>

Entry is free but reservations are required via email: natalieadwerle@hotmail.com<\/a> or tickets@greatpoets.lu<\/a><\/p>
