Translated into English for the first time, Daring To Play: A
Brecht Companion is the study of Bertolt Brecht 's theatre by
Manfred Wekwerth, Brecht 's co-director and former director of the
Berliner Ensemble.
Wekwerth aims to challenge prevailing myths and misconceptions
of Brecht 's theatre, instead providing a refreshing and accessible
approach to his plays and theatrical craft. The book is rich in
information, examples and anecdotal detail from first-hand
acquaintance with Brecht and rehearsal with the Berliner Ensemble.
Wekwerth provides a detailed practical understanding of how theatre
operates with a clear perspective on the interface between politics
and art.
Warm and engaging, whilst also being provocative and
challenging, Daring to Play displays the continued vitality of
Brecht 's true approach to theatre makers today.
