Messingkauf Dialogues (Paperback, Revised - 2nd edition, revised)

Written between 1939-1942 The Messingkauf Dialogues are among the most concise, witty and light-hearted of all Brecht's theoretical discussions of theatre. They are the blue print for Brecht's radical re-creation of theatre making in 1930s and mark a transition from realism to modernism in his plays. Here actor, actress, dramaturg (or literary advisor) and electrician argue with the Brechtian Philosopher who wants to exploit their talent for his own purposes. The result is a debate about the place of art in society.
