Illustration
  • Where: Montmartre Gallery
  • When: February 13, 2014, 19:00 – 21:00

A historical mediation in five acts. A theatre play by Václav Havel that differs from his others in every way, including non-Havelesque construction and dialogues and origin, as after almost 20 years of being banned he was commissioned to write it by the then “cult” Divadlo na provázku theatre and it partially assumed the theatre’s specific brand of poetics. The play was written in 1988 on the 70th anniversary of the creation of Czechoslovakia, when the crust of rigid totalitarianism was slowly, inconspicuously but surely, coming apart…

Our guest will be Petr Oslzlý, director and dramaturge of the Divadlo na provázku and a long-term close friend and collaborator of Václav Havel’s. Other guests are: Eva Salzmannová and Vladimír Javorský

This series dedicated to the plays of Václav Havel is organised by Anna Freimanová.
