| The 20th-century German playwright and poet Bertolt Brecht wrote critical, satirical plays on the social evils of capitalism, German leader Adolf Hitler, and National Socialism (also known as Nazism). Brecht sought a type of theater in which the audience could focus on a play’s themes rather than on its characters. Thus, he developed the revolutionary epic theater, in which his actors would merely read their lines without emotion, enabling the audience to concentrate on the intended lessons of the play. |
