Item Description

Two tickets to the NYC Premiere of our production of Bertolt Brecht's The Mother (Fall of 2020, dates TBD). 

The play premiered in Berlin in 1932 and was to be the last Brecht premiere before the Nazis seized power. In 1935 it was adapted for the stage in collaboration with the Theatre Union of New York, a left-wing theatre company. The Wooster Group revisits this connection between Brecht and New York, introducing its own distinctive aesthetic and contem porary debates. SoHo, the district where the eponymous Wooster Street is located, has undergone extreme gentrification since the Group was first founded in 1975. The transformation of cityscape and society are the themes with which The Wooster Group addresses a text once condemned as propagandistic in the 1930s. Indeed, current events have made a rereading of that text all the more compelling.

Winner can choose any date in the run once dates are announced.
