"The Good Woman of Setzuan" / "The Good Person of Szechwan" is a play written by the German playwright Bertolt Brecht. It was first performed in 1943. The play explores themes of morality, social responsibility, and the conflict between altruism and self-interest.
Set in the fictional Chinese city of Setzuan, the play follows the story of Shen Te, a kind-hearted prostitute who struggles to make a living while remaining virtuous in a corrupt and exploitative society. To cope with the harsh realities of her world, Shen Te invents a male alter ego named Shui Ta, who is ruthless and practical. Through this dual identity, Brecht raises questions about the possibility of goodness in a world driven by economic and social forces.
"The Good Woman of Setzuan" is known for its use of Brechtian techniques such as alienation, where the audience is encouraged to critically engage with the characters and themes rather than becoming emotionally absorbed in the story. It's a thought-provoking exploration of ethics and human nature in the face of adversity.
