SUU’s Department of Theatre, Dance, and Arts Administration will present Bertolt Brecht’s Mother Courage and her Children, one of the greatest anti-war plays of all time, set on the Randall L. Jones Theatre on March 17, 18, 19, and 21, 2022 at 7:30 p.m. with a matinee performance on March 19, 2022 at 2:00 p.m.

TJ Horton, senior Interdisciplinary Studies Psychology and Theatre major from West Valley City, Utah, shares, “The author of Mother Courage and her Children, Bertolt Brecht, wrote what he called ‘dialectical’ theater, plays that seek to have a conversation with the audience about socio-political topics. It is more commonly known as epic theater. He wrote a great deal of theory on how this kind of performance should be executed and we have been learning how to put Brechtian techniques into practice. It’s unlike any kind of theater I’ve ever done!”
