Prague based Theatre on the Balustrade presents “V+W: LETTERS”
The Rehearsal for Truth theater festival honoring Vaclav Havel provides a platform for artists from Central Europe to perform in New York City this fall. On Thursday September 28 at 8:15 pm, the Czech Republic theater company, Theatre on the Balustrade, will present the production entitled KORESPONDENCE V+W / V+W: LETTERS.
The production has been directed by Jan Mikulášek and features
Václav Vašák as Jiří Voskovec
Jiří Vyorálek as Jan Werich
Anežka Kubátová as Zdenička
Dramaturgy: Dora Viceníková Set: Svatopluk Sládeček Costumes: Marek Cpin Music selection: Jan Mikulášek
The text of this performance is drawn from the correspondence of Voskovec and Werich, the legendary founders of the Liberated Theatre in Prague, who had to flee fascist Europe and then separated in 1948 after the communist government got into power in Czechoslovakia. Their correspondence is a strong statement of life by two extraordinarily original and artistically mature personalities as they seek to understand a bipolar world full of iron curtains and cold wars.
These letters are priceless evidence of the intellectual and spiritual world of V+W and they are also the top literary work in Jiří Voskovec’s postwar period. “The form of abbreviation, short connections, theatrical allusions, plus the private codes and brilliant stylization, unbelievable addressing and signing” – these are the apt words the critics used to describe the correspondence.
The show will be performed in Czech with English subtitles.

About the Interlude in Prague Trailer
Prague, 1786. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Aneurin Barnard) spends a few turbulent months escaping the frustrating, privileged elite of Vienna. However his unconventional presence soon unleashes a series of dramatic and tragic events. Overwhelmed by the tangled web of violence and intrigue that surrounds him and with his mind affected, Mozart creates the astonishing music and drama that becomes ‘Don Giovanni’.

Lyrics:
The thorns protruding from the vines. They penetrate
Deep enough to kill the fight
That I have harnessed all my life
That I have harnesses all of my life
Compared just as brothers
Let's not pretend that we each know the other
Neither is greater. Compared just as brothers
We are simply distinguished
One of the same
Bred from a different place
Your hate - It penetrates
Caught under a blanket of fire
I am who I am. Now dragged under
With a smirk so pretentious
You are who you are, now pulled under
Compared just as brothers
I'm alone within a black hole
Turmoil suffocates
I am left to suffer
I will engrave the demise of my brother
I'm alone within a black hole

The Puppet and The Power (Pilot)
This is a short pilot for our 'Puppetry and The Power' documentary film. Our film plays witness to the world's most anarchic puppets and their masters, who address puppetry as an art of defiance and socio-political change. With a history spanning centuries, this naïve art has a complex duty: In places where injustice and social controls stifle citizens, puppets reflect what is wrong, often with impunity, but at other times with grave personal danger. The puppet's power has ongoing relevance, in the face of degraded democracy, corporation control and under regimes with suppressed rights of expression.
