Who should bring up the child? The royal mother who abandoned her baby when revolutionaries stormed the palace? Or the brave servant girl who risked her life to smuggle him to safety? What kind of human being is qualified to decide between these two very different women? And will justice be done…?
With live music, comedy, song and spectacle, Bertolt Brecht’s life-enhancing play will pull at the heart strings and capture the imagination of all ages whilst serving as a pertinent metaphor for conflict everywhere.
