More Mother Courage

Here, in fact, are a few more videos of recent productions. The first was at William and Mary.  (The picture above is from this college production.)

The second is the production that starred Meryl Streep. Tony Kushner did the translation of Brecht's play.

Another is by the Antaeus Theater Company, a professional theater company from LA. It includes many of the songs from Mother Courage so that you may see them acted out.  Unfortunately, it is hard to find a picture from this production!  Below is a picture from rehearsal.
