Caucasian Chalk Circle, by Bertolt Brecht, translated by Frank McGuinness
Director: Georgina Lamb
Musical Supervisor: Scott Brooks
Grusha sacrifices everything to rescue a child abandoned by its wealthy and privileged parents. But when the child's biological mother returns, it is left to the drunken Judge Azdak to call on the ancient rite of the chalk circle to resolve the dispute.
Georgina Lamb (Frantic Assembly, West End, RSC) leads a company of MA Actor-Musicians as they retell one of Brecht's most popular plays, in this modern, musical, morality tale.
