A PRODUCTION FROM YORK SETTLEMENT PLAYERS

THE GOOD PERSON OF SZECHWAN

by Bertolt Brecht

York's leading amateur theatre company makes a welcome return to Friargate Theatre

How can you be good when everybody is trying to rip you off?

How can you protect yourself against those you love as well as those you fear?

Are people vicious by nature or is society to blame?

In Brecht’s fable, The Good Person of Szechwan, the answers are sometimes stark, sometimes funny, sometimes surprising, but always sharply observed. York Settlement Players’ production sets the play in an inner-city blighted by poverty and drugs, but tries to bring out the comedy and the irony in the script as well. A must-see for students of Drama and Theatre, this is also a play that has important things to say to anyone interested in the confusing world we live in.

THE GOOD PERSON OF SZECHWAN runs from 17/03/2004 to 20/03/2004

Admission £6.50, Concessions £5.00
