Fear and Misery in the Third Reich Off-Broadway Original Cast
Fear and Misery in the Third Reich, one of Bertolt Brecht’s most essential and explicitly anti-Nazi works, is rarely produced in the United States. Structured as a series of 18 interconnected vignettes, the play depicts daily life in 1930s Germany as Hitler rises to power and ordinary citizens are gradually consumed by poverty, surveillance, violence, fear, and mutual distrust.
