Illustration
  • Where: Václav Havel Library, Ostrovní 13, Prague 110 00
  • When: June 9, 2015, 19:00 – 21:00

The first presentation of texts from Beatrice Landovská’s original theatre play Koťátka (Kitty) (2015), in the form of a staged reading by actors from the LaMy theatre group. The readings have been prepared by Vanda Zaplatílková Hutařová and Kristýna Čepková.

One of two time-lines in the play, from 1987 to 1990, explores the feelings of then young people born into families of the social minority known today as the “cultural and political dissent”.

“Orphans” of political prisoners and exiles, dilemmas of whether to remain in one’s homeland or leave, and the experience of everyday encounters with betrayal in the form of omnipresent StB agents are characteristic phenomena of the time and place.

Actors:  Helena Karochová, Roman Teprt, Karel Riegel, Marie Hásková, William Valerián, Mária Holbová, Adéla Koutná, Tereza Kaucká, Viktorie Hásková a Jakub Koudela
