Actress leaves play

NEW YORK

Bertolt Brecht’s epic play “Mother Courage and Her Children” may be about the horrors of war, but a new off-Broadway production is revealing real conflict offstage, too.

Tony Award-winning actress Tonya Pinkins said she will abruptly leave the Classic Stage Company’s revival this month, claiming the part has been “neutered,” “subordinate” and created through “the filter of the white gaze.”

The play is about a woman who runs a canteen-on-wheels during the Thirty Years’ War, which spanned 1618-1648. She is dependent on the bloodshed around her to keep her business flush and support her family. As her values erode, she is robbed of everything she truly cares about.

In the Classic Stage Company revival, directed by Brian Kulick, who is the artistic director of the company, the play’s setting was changed to the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the script was cut. But Pinkins complained the shift to Africa was “a decorative motif” and it was not clear to her until technical rehearsals that the revival’s view of the heroine “was of a delusional woman trying to do the impossible.”
