The gradesaver study guide on caucasian chalk circle has a really good analysis in the about section to help you with the third question, context for the play.

I once saw it performed in a round circle stage, where they had to deal with a 360 degree audience. This directed the action into the audience in a much stronger way, probably in a way that Brecht would have approved of.

im praveen working on brecht's caucasian chalk circle, im not able to contectualise the drama, so please i need somebody's help.........

Praveen, what type of contextualization are you trying to do on Caucasian Chalk Circle? Can you be more specific about what you need to answer or analyze in the text?
