Overview
Arendt/Brecht: 'Stop and Think!' is an adaptation of a radio broadcast given by Hannah Arendt on Bertolt Brecht. Praising the poet, the author of The Origins of Totalitarianism holds him to account for his political 'failings'. To support her argument, songs and poems by Brecht are performed either in French or in their original language, with surtitles. Another recurring thread is a dialogue that develops between the two actresses, anchoring the discussion in the present day and giving pride of place to the biting irony of both writers.
