    Dansen is a pig farmer and a respectable member of the community. His fellow members of the commerce class in the town often meet, to play cards, sign contracts and sort out disagreements; it is a wholly satisfying way of life. But this cosy arrangement is upset with the arrival of a stranger, a man who is intent on breaking contracts and instigating the most hostile of takeovers with the point of a pistol. He forces Dansen into collaboration: against his former colleagues, his better judgement and his own interests. Written in early 1939, 'Dansen' is a one-act agitprop piece which highlights the dangers of appeasement in the face of aggressive behaviour from a self-appointed enemy.

    'Round Heads and Pointed Heads' began as an adaptation of Shakespeare's 'Measure for Measure'. Commissioned in 1931 by stage and screen director Ludwig Berger, Brecht's ideas about the play soon took the work beyond straight adaptation, incorporating more and more elements of contemporary political satire. It tells the story of a racial conflict between two classes of citizens, those with pointed heads and those whose heads are round - both as abnormal as each other - in the fictional town of Luma. Written in the early 1930s, it finally received its premiere in Copenhagen on 4 November 1936, before being published in German in 1938.

    Partly based on Synge's 'Riders to the Sea', 'Señora Carrar's Rifles' transposes the Irish play of the early 20th century to mid-century Andalucia. There, a fisherwoman named Teresa Carrar is trying desperately to maintain a normal life even as the civil war closes in around her; having killed her husband it proposes now to sweep up her two sons as well. Teresa hopes to insulate her boys from the fighting, believing she can keep her head down, sew nets and send the boats out, and the war need not touch them. But tragedy strikes her eldest on the waves, causing her to rethink her position of non-engagement. Written as an Aristotelian drama, based on empathy, rather than Brecht's own theories of Epic theatre, 'Señora Carrar's Rifles' is one of Brecht's more immediately accessible plays. It premiered in Paris, 1937.

    When the Roman general and politician Lucullus dies, we witness his trial by jury, who will decide whether he takes his place among the heroes in the Elysium fields, or whether he shuffles through the shadows in the darkness of Hades' halls. Allowed to defend himself, Lucullus calls forth witnesses to his great militaristic victories, including conquering the far east for Rome, only for the jury and judge to point out the human loss in each case. Ultimately, those characteristics in himself that he saw as irrelevant are his only graces, while the greatness with which he had gilded his reputation is reduced only to the charge sheet which may condemn him. 'The Trial of Lucullus' was a radio play first broadcast in May 1940.

    Svendson is an ironmonger who suddenly picks up a new customer; apparently wealthy, and with a healthy desire for Svendson's wares, the customer keeps coming back with orders for iron bars. Still, Svendson's conscience is pricked by this avid stockpiling of weapons (though not enough to stop selling; particularly when he sees some of his fellow merchants also selling to the customer, while his own orders continue to double). Eventually though, Svendson's luck runs out, when the customer eventually stops paying his way. Written in early 1939, 'How Much is Your Iron?' is a one-act agitprop piece that highlights the dangers of appeasement, and questions the morality of trade with a belligerent customer.
