75: The Thanksgiving Special (Mutter Courage und ihre Kinder)

The Unauthorized Critics Circle

Join hosts Joshua and Dan this Thanksgiving as they cover a towering work of theatre written by a towering man. As everyone sits down at the table, the traditional holiday question of "what is Mother Courage thankful for this year?" is asked. The conversation zigs and zags to many places as the hosts discuss what a Mother Courage musical would look like, Ethel Merman (as always), and why certain tapes exist. idk, Joshie thinks it's weird we're doing this. I think this is the reason we exist. Take it for a spin. Jump on the cart!

Tune in to next week's episode when we discuss RENT; specifically, the show, not the concept that no one can afford anymore because of freaking gentrification. Oh - the Broadway production's performance from April 19th, 1996!
