In June 2014 the Writing Brecht project participated in a symposium dedicated to ‘Re-Thinking Brecht’, held at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. The principal editor of the new theory volume Brecht on Performance (2014), Tom Kuhn discussed his work on Brecht’s writings on performance, in particular on the ‘Modelbooks’. Here, he outlines the importance of photography for Brecht’s documentation of his productions, and his modelbooks for Antigone and Mother Courage.
