CAUCASIAN CHALK CIRCLE
By Bertolt Brecht
Directed by Armina LaManna
ONCE UPON A TIME... there was a young boy left abandoned in the heat of a brutal civil war. A lowly servant girl comes to his rescue and risks everything to protect him. The war comes to an end and now the girl, Grusha, is forced to confront the boy's biological mother in a legal contest over who deserves to keep him. The comical judge, Azdak, calls on an ancient tradition the chalk circle to resolve the dispute. Who will win?
A harrowing human fable masterfully fashioned into a joyful theatrical landscape of song, character, scenes and poetry, Brecht's Epic Theater classic is a fresh, vibrant and thought-provoking parable for our troubled times.
