The Good Person is a study of Bertolt Brecht's 1943 parabolic play. Drawing from Viewpoints training to the musings of the Frankfurt School, ten performers take on this highly dynamic choreographic score to pose the question: are there any good people left in the world? In a time where good and evil feel very stark, this play is about desperation, first love, and the myth of morality.
