Synopsis

A lone woman, Anna Fierling, tries to achieve the irreconcilable aims of making money and keeping her family alive during the nightmare of the Thirty Years War.

At the end of a century ravaged by war on an unprecedented scale, Bertolt Brecht''s great masterpiece of silence and survival seems only to have grown in stature since its premiere in 1941

This version by David Hare was premiered by the National Theatre, London, in November 1995.'
