Václav Havel a Marek Hejduk

Protest/Debt

33 years have passed between the two one-act plays, connected through the characters of Vaněk and Staněk and through absurd humour.

Švandovo Theatre Ensemble
Show Length: 1 hr 40 min including intermission
Director: Daniel Hrbek
Premiere Date: 25. 4. 2015
Derniere Date: 30. 5. 2023

What happens when two writers meet - one who is not allowed to write and the other who writes whatever he wants? What if the first one has a surprising proposal for the second one? And what if the two of them meet years later when they can write freely but it is not working?

Brilliant Václav Havel´s dialogue is confronted with dramatic attempt of a debuting author. To sign or not to sign? To act or just to talk? Did the elites fail or did we? Protest? Rest!

Kindly note that actors smoke on stage during the show.
