Sándor Zsótér has a passionate and biassed love for Brecht's plays. He is obsessed in thinking that every young actor must get to know the wisely practical thinking of this clever and cunning man. Mother Courage is one of Brecht's most representative plays. It's the story of a canteen woman set during the Thirty Years' War. She marches down her own military road with her three children and her cart. She knows that war serves only the interests of the great ones, but she thinks she might win something too. She lives off war, but war lives off her. She loses her children one after the next. She condemns war, but she ignores the fact that she's also a part of it. She doesn't allow her experience to influence her judgment.

The play's characters live on the road. The yard of the University of Theatre and Film promised to be an ideal location. The jumps in time and space presented themselves naturally. There is an exciting tension in the meeting of a young actor and a character who's much older. Because of their young age the actors don't yet have much life experience, so their own personalities have a much more vivid effect. Still, the role and its interpretation are more clearly outlined than with an older actor, because routine doesn't get in the way. There's more freedom in their work and more courage in their scenic solutions.
