Brecht’s series of twenty-four interconnected playlets describe events which took place in ordinary German households in the 1930s. They dramatise with clinical precision the suspicion and anxiety experienced by ordinary people, particularly Jewish citizens, as the power of Hitler grew.
Lucy Sheen has reimagined this historic piece, utilising music and sound to touch on the relevance that Brecht’s work still elicits on today’s society, both demographically and politically.
