His landmark plays include Mother Courage and Her Children, The Threepenny Opera, The Life of Galileo and The Caucasian Chalk Circle. His plays and dramatic theory are central to the study of modern theatre. Kristopher Imbrigotta is Assistant Professor of German Studies at the University of Puget Sound (Tacoma, USA).
