MUTTERS COURAGE
"Mutters Courage" (Mother's Courage) is a 1979 play by Hungarian-British writer George Tabori, later adapted into an opera, based on the true story of his mother, Elsa Tabori. It recounts how she was spared from deportation to Auschwitz in 1944 after courageously confronting—and charming—the SS officer overseeing the transport, blending tragedy with humor and absurdity.
