New production of the Caucasian Chalk Circle

In these tempestuous times, Bertolt Brecht’s famous play about justice, love and possession is as relevant as ever.

Western Australia’s Black Swan Company clearly recognizes this, with a new production of the classic play that promises to be very, very special.

For the first time the theatre group is collaborating with another company – the National Theatre of China.

Brecht incorporated a classical Chinese folk tale in his play, so it is a creatively interesting connection to make – what’s more the National Theatre of China’s Dr Wang Xiaoying is directing the play.

The play is running until the 14th of August at the Heath Ledger Theatre in Perth.
