In turbulent 1968 Czechoslovakia, political unrest has given way to Soviet invasion. With humor, an American graduate student confronts ruthlessness.
A minimalist cautionary tale based on the political suppression of late 1960’s Czech theatre artists previously involved in “theatre as revolution,” this semi-autobiographical “memory” play is relevant, haunting and very funny: “A good-natured man of the theatre taking us into his world abstractly through time and geography.” WENCESLAS SQUARE is being presented by Cesear’s Forum in a limited September/October engagement at Kennedy’s Theatre, Playhouse Square. The play parallels the Ukraine political unrest that has given way to Russian invasion. The telling, with humor, finds an American professor and his drama student confronting oppression and ruthlessness.
