    'He Who Says No' forms a pair with 'He Who Says Yes', inspired by the Japanese Noh play 'Taniko', relating two different versions of a fable about consenting to a cause. The Boy demands to be taken by his teacher on a dangerous journey into the mountains, so that he can bring back medicine for his ill mother. The teacher acquiesces reluctantly, but when the boy can't go on, either he or the journey will have to be sacrificed. The didactic Lehrstc͏̈ke (or 'learning-plays') were written during 1929 and 1930, and show an abrupt rejection of most of the trappings of conventional theatre

    Written in 1940 during Brecht's brief exile in Finland, Puntila is one of his greatest creations. A hard-drinking Finnish landowner, Puntila suffers from a divided personality - when drunk he is human and humane; when sober, surly and self-centred. Oscillating unsteadily between these two poles, Puntila plays havoc with his workmen, his women, his daughter's marital arrangements and the loyalty of his sardonic chauffeur, Matti. 'Mr Puntila and his Man Matti' contains some of the best comedy Brecht wrote for the theatre. It was first staged in Zurich in 1948

    'Saint Joan of the Stockyards' is set in a mythical Chicago. Brecht's Saint Joan is a Salvation Army lieutenant who challeges the power of Pierpont Mauler, the Meat King. The play is full of pastiche and parody and stems from the time of world economic crisis around 1929-32, a crucial period of creativity and political experiment for Brecht. However, it was never staged in his lifetime. 'Saint Joan of the Stockyards' was first produced in Hamburg in 1959, three years after Brecht's death

    In a prologue set in Soviet Georgia, a narrator introduces the story of choice and sacrifice. The servant girl Grusha sacrifices everything she has to look after an abandoned child, even marrying a dying peasant in order to provide for him. But when the boy's biological mother attempts to reclaim him, the unruly judge Azdak calls on the ancient tradition of the chalk circle to resolve the dispute. Brecht subverts an ancient Chinese story into a parable advocating that resources should go to those best able to make use of them. A morality masterpiece, the play powerfully demonstrates Brecht's pioneering theatrical techniques

    The 'Exception and the Rule' is a parable about exploitation, telling the story of a rich merchant travelling across the desert and being increasingly cruel to his porter so they can travel as fast as possible. When their water supplies run low, the porter offers him a drink from his water bottle, but the merchant thinks he is being attacked by the porter, and shoots him. In the following courtroom scene, the brutal logic of the judge finds the merchant innocent because of his cruelty. The didactic Lehrstc͏̈ke (or 'learning-plays') were written during 1929 and 1930

    Brecht's famous parable pivots around a moral paradox - that in an unjust society good can only survive by means of evil. Through the sharply split personality of the central character Shen Teh / Shui Ta Brecht points to the impossibility of living anything like a 'good' life in a corrupted and persistently exploitative world. 'The Good Person of Szechwan' was first performed in Zurich in 1943

    Based on Christopher Marlowe's classic play, The Life of Edward II of England dramatizes the life of the king who was deposed and eventually murdered by his wife and her lover. Edward's treatment of his favourite courtier, Gaveston, causes discontent among the English nobles, and provokes the Queen's jealousy. She and her lover, Mortimer, raise an army, intending to put her son on the throne. Although Brecht used Marlowe's play as a source, he envisioned Edward II as a challenge to German Shakespearean traditions, which he considered stodgy and middle-class. It premiered in Munich in 1924

    'The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui' is a savage satire in blank verse on the rise of Hitler, wittily transposed into a small-time gangster's takeover of Chicago's greengrocery trade. The seam of black comedy which runs through this political parable does not lessen the sharpness of its accusation; the unpleasantness of the pseudo-dictator Ui is hardly a revelation, but Brecht points to the resistibility of his rise, and the society that permitted it. Using a wide range of parody and pastiche Brecht creates a hilariously comic and darkly condemnatory allegory warning of the persistence of fascism

    'He Who Says No' forms a pair with 'He Who Says Yes', inspired by the Japanese Noh play 'Taniko', relating two different versions of a fable about consenting to a cause. The Boy demands to be taken by his teacher on a dangerous journey into the mountains, so that he can bring back medicine for his ill mother. The teacher acquiesces reluctantly, but when the boy can't go on, either he or the journey will have to be sacrificed. The didactic Lehrstc̈ke (or 'learning-plays') were written during 1929 and 1930, and show an abrupt rejection of most of the trappings of conventional theatre.

    Written in 1940 during Brecht's brief exile in Finland, Puntila is one of his greatest creations. A hard-drinking Finnish landowner, Puntila suffers from a divided personality - when drunk he is human and humane; when sober, surly and self-centred. Oscillating unsteadily between these two poles, Puntila plays havoc with his workmen, his women, his daughter's marital arrangements and the loyalty of his sardonic chauffeur, Matti. 'Mr Puntila and his Man Matti' contains some of the best comedy Brecht wrote for the theatre. It was first staged in Zurich in 1948.

    'Saint Joan of the Stockyards' is set in a mythical Chicago. Brecht's Saint Joan is a Salvation Army lieutenant who challeges the power of Pierpont Mauler, the Meat King. The play is full of pastiche and parody and stems from the time of world economic crisis around 1929-32, a crucial period of creativity and political experiment for Brecht. However, it was never staged in his lifetime. 'Saint Joan of the Stockyards' was first produced in Hamburg in 1959, three years after Brecht's death.

    In a prologue set in Soviet Georgia, a narrator introduces the story of choice and sacrifice. The servant girl Grusha sacrifices everything she has to look after an abandoned child, even marrying a dying peasant in order to provide for him. But when the boy's biological mother attempts to reclaim him, the unruly judge Azdak calls on the ancient tradition of the chalk circle to resolve the dispute. Brecht subverts an ancient Chinese story into a parable advocating that resources should go to those best able to make use of them. A morality masterpiece, the play powerfully demonstrates Brecht's pioneering theatrical techniques.

    The 'Exception and the Rule' is a parable about exploitation, telling the story of a rich merchant travelling across the desert and being increasingly cruel to his porter so they can travel as fast as possible. When their water supplies run low, the porter offers him a drink from his water bottle, but the merchant thinks he is being attacked by the porter, and shoots him. In the following courtroom scene, the brutal logic of the judge finds the merchant innocent because of his cruelty. The didactic Lehrstc̈ke (or 'learning-plays') were written during 1929 and 1930.

    Brecht's famous parable pivots around a moral paradox - that in an unjust society good can only survive by means of evil. Through the sharply split personality of the central character Shen Teh / Shui Ta Brecht points to the impossibility of living anything like a 'good' life in a corrupted and persistently exploitative world. 'The Good Person of Szechwan' was first performed in Zurich in 1943.

    Based on Christopher Marlowe's classic play, The Life of Edward II of England dramatizes the life of the king who was deposed and eventually murdered by his wife and her lover. Edward's treatment of his favourite courtier, Gaveston, causes discontent among the English nobles, and provokes the Queen's jealousy. She and her lover, Mortimer, raise an army, intending to put her son on the throne. Although Brecht used Marlowe's play as a source, he envisioned Edward II as a challenge to German Shakespearean traditions, which he considered stodgy and middle-class. It premiered in Munich in 1924.

    'The Measures Taken', first produced in 1930 in the Grosses Schauspielhaus, Berlin, is a didactic parable showing how dedication to an idealist cause sometimes does not leave room for a response to individual suffering. Four 'Agitators' describe how they were forced to kill a 'Young Comrade' because of his susceptibility to pity and compromise. The didactic Lehrstc̈ke (or 'learning-plays') were written during 1929 and 1930, and show an abrupt rejection of most of the trappings of conventional theatre.

    'The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui' is a savage satire in blank verse on the rise of Hitler, wittily transposed into a small-time gangster's takeover of Chicago's greengrocery trade. The seam of black comedy which runs through this political parable does not lessen the sharpness of its accusation; the unpleasantness of the pseudo-dictator Ui is hardly a revelation, but Brecht points to the resistibility of his rise, and the society that permitted it. Using a wide range of parody and pastiche Brecht creates a hilariously comic and darkly condemnatory allegory warning of the persistence of fascism.
