About

Bertolt Brecht’s epic tale about justice and humanity is propelled into the present day, in a modern-day version by Steve Waters (The Last King of Scotland) with original songs by Michael Henry (Barber Shop Chronicles).

In a refugee camp, a fight breaks out over lost land. To seek resolution, a singer tells the fable of ‘The Chalk Circle’: in the midst of a bloody revolution, a servant girl risks all to raise the abandoned child of the Governor and his wife. Years later, when the Governor’s wife returns seeking her son, a rogue judge turns justice on its head. Can the test of the Chalk Circle determine which of the two women is the boy’s real mother?
