1898 - 1956 | Bertolt Brecht | Master of Epic Theatre

Dive into the revolutionary world of Bertolt Brecht, a 20th-century theatre titan! This video explores how Brecht weaponized song and the "Verfremdungseffekt" (alienation effect) to shatter theatrical norms and ignite critical thinking. We'll unpack his early rebellious works like Baal and *The Threepenny Opera*, revealing his critique of bourgeois society and the capitalist system. Discover how Brecht, influenced by Erwin Piscator, challenged Aristotelian drama, aiming to disrupt emotional immersion and foster active audience engagement. We'll examine the Lehrstücke (learning plays) and his later works like *The Caucasian Chalk Circle*, tracing the evolution of his techniques and their lasting impact on political theatre, modern filmmaking (Jean-Luc Godard), and performance studies. Was Brecht a visionary or a dogmatic ideologue? Explore the controversies surrounding his work and his enduring relevance in our media-saturated world, where critical analysis is more vital than ever. Join us as we uncover the legacy of a playwright who dared to demand more from his audience.
