Bertolt Brecht's theories have significantly shaped Women's Theatre, particularly through concepts like social gests, epic structure, and the alienation effect, which expose societal issues. The text emphasizes the necessity to adapt representation methods to better address women's concerns, suggesting that plays by women can more effectively convey their issues. While Brecht did not explicitly address gender equality, his critique of societal evils resonates with the struggles against the suppression and marginalization of women, highlighting a potential avenue for social change.
