Profiles in "Courage"


As a member of the press, I'm never sure what I should do about gala fund-raising benefits. I can sometimes swing a press comp or two, though that's often a sign that the benefit didn't sell enough tickets to (high-)paying customers. I doubt sales will be a problem for the upcoming "Courage in Concert," which will reconvene much of the cast of the Public's brilliant musicalization of Mother Courage, but it's one I'd actually like to try to see--or rather, hear, since Jeanine Tesori's underrated score has never been recorded or released.
