Nina Segal's modern adaptation of Bertolt Brecht's drama.
Three gods search for just one honest person on earth to justify humanity’s existence. They find Shen Te, a good-hearted but penniless prostitute, who offers them shelter. In return, the gods reward her with a life-changing amount of money. But by starting her own business in a money-centered, unequal society, her fortune soon turns to frustration as the more kindness she shows, the more complicated life becomes.
Anthony Lau directs this new production of Brecht's drama, which celebrates its 80th anniversary this year.
