Audience & Protest
Audience & Protest Tickets and Information
Synopsis
In honor of his 70th birthday and upcoming two month residency at Columbia University, Untitled Theater Company #61 (Artistic Director Edward Einhorn) - the company that brought us the Ionesco Festival and recently the NEUROfest - presents all of the plays of Vaclav Havel in Havel Fest.
Audience, translated by Jan Novák and directed by Edward Einhorn, is the first of the Vanek plays, featuring a character closest to Havel himself. It tells of a dissident writer who is forced to work in a brewery so that he can contribute to society, rather than be an intellectual bourgeois burden.
Protest, the final of the Vanek plays, tells of a writer named Stanek who appeals to Vanek to help start a petition protesting the arrest of Stanek's daughter's fiancé. But when Stanek discovers the petition has already been started, he has to decide whether to sign it himself. Prostest was also translated by Jan Novák; it is directed by Robert Lyons and produced by Soho Think Tank.
