This 1980s documentary on German theatre practitioner Bertolt Brecht and his staging methods is still a useful resource for Brecht lovers! Posted here in three parts, the video discusses several of Brecht’s plays and how he preferred to stage them based on his epic theatre principles. Includes interview excerpts with Brecht’s wife and actress Helene Weigel, among others.

The Brecht on Stage video was originally linked to in this post from YouTube, but has since been removed due to copyright infringement. I believe it may now be out of distribution, but I have linked to two sources with its details that may help you track it down. Good luck!
