Václav Havel: Protest

To sign or not to sign? This was a fiendish question that the writers of dramatic works frequently faced. This lesser known one-act Vaněk play from 1978 on a still topical issue will be performed by Havel’s “court” theatre, Divadlo na tahu; it has been staging his plays since 1975 when it put on a “scandalous” production of The Beggar’s Opera in Horní Počernice.
