What happens, when you get to know on some party, that someone got beaten in Prague and a revolution started? Of course, perestroika runs for four years, regimes in eastern Europe are falling one after another, the Berlin Wall is being dismantled by first tourists but there is something in the air also in Czechoslovakia. But that´s politics, and the real life is somewhere else. Stories of students, who in crucial moments of November 89, stood their place at the edge of happening.

The staging talks about Velvet Revolution in 1989, which was led by students and actors, from the view of eye witnesses and participants. About naivety and ideals, and it´s conditions after twenty years. About a revolution theatre and an important role of actors in it. About students and actors in 2009 and about the thought, if there could be another revolution in the future.
