Summary/Abstract: Friederike Felbeck reviews Marta Górnicka's production of M(other) Courage, based on Bertolt Brecht's drama (Staatstheater Braunschweig, premiere: 25.09.2015), seen through the lens of the current situation in Germany. The author points out the visible allusions to Angela Merkel and her role in the migrant crisis in Europe, or to the spread of cheap prostitution. Felbeck calls Górnicka's play an analysis of the present in Germany, and the subjects she addresses are the nation's painful backbone. The critic focuses on the musical dramaturgy of the production, provided by a choir of professionals and amateurs.
