theatre performance in S2 (Stanica_CLASS)

What would happen when you hear at some party that somebody had been beaten up in Prague and that the revolution started? Clear, perestroyka had been in progress for four years already, the regimes in Europe were falling one after another, the Berlin Wall was taken apart by the first tourists and there was something in the air in the Czechoslovakia too. But this is politics and life is something totally different. The stories of students who were able to keep their places on the brink in those tense times.

The performance talks about the Velvet revolution in 1989 which was led by students and actors from a view of its participants. About naivety and ideals and their state after 20 years.

About the theatre of revolution and the important role of actors in it. About students and actors in 2009 and  about the questionable possibility of another revolution.
