About Bertold Brecht: A poet first and foremost, Bertolt Brecht's genius was for language. However, because this language is built upon a certain bold and direct simplicity, his plays often lose something in the translation from his native German. Nevertheless, they contain a rare poetic vision, a voice that has rarely been paralleled in the 20th century.
Brecht was influenced by a wide variety of sources including Chinese, Japanese, and Indian theatre, the Elizabethans, Greek tragedy, fair-ground entertainments, and Bavarian folk plays. Such a wide variety of sources might have proven overwhelming for a lesser artist, but Brecht had the uncanny ability to take elements from seemingly incompatible sources, combine them, and make them his own.
About MIT Dramashop: From their website, "Dramashop is a student-run theater group that works alongside the MIT Theatre Arts faculty, staff, and guest artists. As a co-curricular organization, Dramashop mounts at least two credit-bearing productions each year (which means it can count toward graduation!). Also, this great opportunity to work closely alongside accomplished directors and production staff means you are able to learn much more from being part of one show than in the classroom. Historically, our two mainstage productions occur over IAP (Independent Activities Period in January) and in the spring term, but some years, our IAP production is mounted in the fall instead. Besides our main stage productions, Dramashop produces a festival of student-directed one-act plays."
