"What is the cost of being good?"
Three gods search for just one honest person on earth to justify humanity's existence. Finding Shen Te, penniless but principled, they reward her with a life-changing amount of cash.
But starting her own business in a money-centred, unequal society, her fortune soon turns to frustration as the more kindness she shows, the more complicated life becomes.
Marking the 80th anniversary of Bertolt Brecht’s popular play, this new version by Nina Segal is directed by Sheffield Theatres’ Associate Artistic Director Anthony Lau (Anna Karenina; Rock).
