BRECHT BERTOLT

Mother Courage and Her Children

Kyoto: Eyre Methuen, 1972. Paperback. Trade Paperback in Very Good+ condition. The binding is tight and the pages are clean & unmarke. Moderate cover scuffing and edgewear. "Mother Courage was first performed in Zurich in 1941 and is usually seen as Brecht's greatest work. Remaining a powerful indictment of war and social injustice, it is an epic drama set in the seventeenth century during the Thirty Years' War. The plot follows the resilient Mother Courage who survives by running a commissary business that profits from all sides. As the war claims all of her children in turn, the play poignantly demonstrates that no one can profit from the war without being subject to its terrible cost also." ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 81 pages. Very Good .

MAMET, DAVID

Theatre

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2011. Paperback. ISBN: 086547947X. In Fine condition. A sound binding, two line written on the end paper, otherwise the pages are bright & unmarked. "If theatre were a religion, explains David Mamet in his opening chapter, "many of the observations and suggestions in this book might be heretical." As always, Mamet delivers on his promise: in Theatre, the acclaimed author of Glengarry Glen Ross and Speed the Plow calls for nothing less than the death of the director and the end of acting theory. For Mamet, either actors are good or they are non-actors, and good actors generally work best without the interference of a director, however well-intentioned. Issue plays, political correctness, method actors, impossible directions, Stanislavksy, and elitists all fall under Mamet's critical gaze. To students, teachers, and directors who crave a blast of fresh air in a world that can be insular and fearful of change, Theatre throws down a gauntlet that challenges everyone to do better, including Mamet himself." ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 176 pages.
