German playwright Bertolt Brecht meshes elements of Chinese opera, Brooklyn lingo, World War II-era socio-economic struggle, and gutsy caberet-style songs. Into the impoverished city of Szechuan come three traveling gods, touring Earth to find just one "good person." The find Shen Te, a kind-hearted woman living as a prostitute to pay the rent. When a "gift from the gods" allows Shen Te to open a tobacco shop, her generosity is quickly abused, so Shen Te invents a cutthroat male alter ego whose sole priority is business. With a modern translation and musical score, 3rd year MFA director Dor Cosby Atkinson directs this darkly comic and explosive piece of theatre.
