Brecht was never inclined to see any of his plays as completely
finished, and this volume collects some of the most important
theatrical projects and fragments that were always to remain 'works
in progress'. Offering an invaluable insight into the writer's
working methods and practices, the collection features the famous
Fatzer as well as The Bread Store and Judith of Shimoda, along with
other texts that have never before been available in English.
Alongside the familiar, 'completed' plays, Brecht worked on many
ideas and plans which he never managed to work up even once for
print or stage. In pieces like Fleischhacker, Garbe/Busching and
Jacob Trotalong we see how such projects were abandoned or
interrupted or became proving grounds for ideas and techniques. The
works collated here span over thirty years and allow the reader to
follow Brecht's creative process as he constantly revised his work
to engage with new contexts. This treasure-trove of new discoveries
is also annotated with dramaturgical notes to present readable and
useable texts for the theatre. The volume is edited by Tom Kuhn and
Charlotte Ryland, with the translation and dramaturgical edition of
each play provided by a team of experienced writers, scholars and
translators.
