Theatre Night 2015
This participatory theatre performance will allow participants of Theatre Night to enter into the roles of different actors in a demonstration that took place on Wenceslas Square exactly 26 years ago to the day. November 21, 1989 is not just a symbolic date, but the day on which the revolutionary events moved a significant step forward. Václav Havel made his first public speech from the Melantrich balcony. Visitors to the Archa Theatre will be able to decide whether to become direct actors in the reconstruction of this historic moment or remain mere spectators.
This five-hour theatre event does not need to be seen from beginning to end; spectators may freely come and go. The performance is in Czech, Spanish and English.
Concept, director: Lola Arias. Dramaturgy: Ondřej Hrab and Ondřej Cihlář.
