“I won’t let you spoil my war for me. Destroys the weak, does it? Well, what does peace do for’em, huh? War feeds its people better.”

Considered by many to be one of the greatest plays of the 20th Century,
Mother Courage and Her Children is set against the backdrop of the Thirty Years War and follows the fate of the indomitable Mother Courage  as she follows one luckless army after another across a war-torn world in her canteen wagon. She'll do anything to hold onto her money-making wagon, even if it means the loss of her children. 

Experience a timeless tale of war updated to the modern-day conflagration in the Congo, with a new and vibrant score by Tony Award-winning composer Duncan Sheik (Spring Awakening, American Psycho). Directed by Brian Kulick

Mother Courage and Her Children still resonates today as a profound insight into the moral implications of war.
