I saw this performance on 28 November at the National Theatre Olivier.
An absolutely superb performance, marred only by one thing: the theatre was absolutely freezing with members of the audience shivering and putting on overcoats.
At one point we were treated to a welcome blast of hot air from an on-stage flamethrower, only once unfortunately.
That aside, Fiona Shaw as Mother Courage gave an astounding performance; Duke Special's music was perfect. The stage set was superb and gave the impression of a real war taking place.
But please National Theatre management, put the heating on!
