Bertolt Brehti – Emotional Acting

Bertolt Brehti, there is no doubt that he was one of the most prominent personalities of drama and theater in the twentieth century. He was born in Augsburg, Bavaria, on February 10, 1898. At a very tender age, he began his adventures in the world of literature, excelling in writing poetry. He even published some of them in 1914, when he was quite young. Although he was a solid student at school, Bertolt had just been expelled from the Augsburg gymnasium for his refusal to write the essay on the theme: "It is sweet and honorable to die for your country." In 1917, Brehti enrolled in the faculty of medicine at the Ludvig Maximilian University in Munich, in which case, in one of the student activities, he will participate in a famous theater seminar led by Artur Kuçeri. Kucheri, in fact, was well-known and had a reputation for being a kind of guru. Thus, in Artur Kuçeri's seminar, Brehti was left with extraordinary impressions. In fact, his enthusiasm and inspiration went so far that Brecht began to criticize one of Kučer's favorite authors, Hans Johsti, in particular a biographical drama of his about life in the nineteenth century. In fact, the young Brecht will go so far in his criticisms that, to argue them, he proposed to Kučeri that he would write a much better play than Johst, even using the same theme. And thus, in fact, his first drama Bali was born.
