Turandot, or, the Whitewashers’ Congress<\/b><\/i> is an epic comedy by the German Modernist playwright Bertolt Brecht. It was written during 1953-54, though it was still incomplete at the time of Brecht’s death in 1956 and did not receive its first production until several years later.<\/sup> It premi\u00e8red in 1969 in Zurich. <\/sup>The story is loosely based on Count Carlo Gozzi\u00b4s play Turandot<\/em> (1762). Its plot is about how to explain high cotton prices, although a vast harvest. The prize for best explanation is Turandot. The big topic is the abuse of intellectual skills.
