Quinnipiac Presents the Caucasian Chalk Circle at Long Wharf Theatre

Theater for Community will present "The Caucasian Chalk Circle" from April 14-17 at Long Wharf Theatre, Stage II, in New Haven.

Written by Bertolt Brecht in 1945 in anticipation of the end of the Second World War, "The Caucasian Chalk Circle" is based on a 14th century Chinese play and combines two parables. One features a peasant girl who steals a baby but becomes a better mother than its natural parents, and the other depicts an incorrigible scoundrel who becomes a judge and brings justice to the people through his unconventional rulings.

 General admission tickets are $12 and $8 for students and senior citizens. For tickets, please call 203-582-8394 or crystal.brian@quinnipiac.edu.
