Pinkins' recent performance in Rasheeda Speaking, opposite Dianne Wiest, saw her nominated for Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards. She won her Tony for her work in Jelly's Last Jam. She is joined in the CSC production by Joshua Boone, Curtiss Cook Jr., Kevin Mambo, Jacob Ming-Trent, Geoffrey Owens, Michael Potts, Deandre Sevon, Mirirai Sithole and Zenzi Williams.

According to CSC, Mother Courage and Her Children "follows one luckless army after another across a war-torn world in her canteen wagon. She’ll do anything to hold onto her money-making wagon, even if it means the loss of her children, in this timeless tale of war and big business updated to the modern-day conflagration in the Congo."

The production will feature set design by Tony Straiges, costume design by Toni-Leslie James, lighting design by Justin Townsend and sound design by Matt Stine.
