In his eponymous parable, Bertolt Brecht explores a profound question: Is it more exhausting to be good or to play the villain? As Brecht himself answers, using the example of Shen Te, whose good nature is exploited by everyone, it depends on the prevailing circumstances. Cong Su, who won an Oscar for his score to Bernardo Bertolucci's cinematic hit *The Last Emperor*, has adapted the parable for the opera stage. For its world premiere at the same venue, Brecht specialist and former artistic director of the Linz State Theatre, Stephan Suschke, returns to Linz.
