Hall Plays: 2: Mr Puntila; Mother Courage; A Servant to Two Masters; The Good Hope

A collection of major play adaptations by the author of Billy Elliott




MR PUNTILA: "Brecht's Puntila is the Jekyll and Hyde of the class war. When he's plastered this Finnish landowner drips with sugary human kindness; once sober again, he's a tyrannical bastard... Lee Hall mixes in-your-face contemporary slang with endearing jokes....It's not often that you can write 'Bertolt Brecht' and 'knockabout fun' in the same sentence" - Paul Taylor, Independent

MOTHER COURAGE: For Mother Courage, war ...
