Director Kathleen Jeffs and actors Bridget Pretz, Erin Sellers, and Eloisa Serrano of the Gonzaga Theatre and Dance Department arrived at the studio to discuss their production of "Mother Courage and Her Children." Originally penned by German playwright Bertolt Brecht in 1939, it is the story of a woman who travels the Thirty Year War in her tattered wagon, literally feeding her family off the machine of war.

Performances will be at 7:30 PM November 1-3 & 8-10, with 2:00 PM matinees on November 4 & 11.

The production is rated PG-13 and may not be suitable for all audiences.
