National Theatre Prague/Czech Republic

directed by Jan Frič

 

Maxim Gorky´s play Vassa Zheleznovova directed by Jan Frič (National Theatre – The Estates Theatre) became The Best Production of 2021 in frames of The Theater Critics' Awards. The Theatre Critics’ Awards are traditionally based on the sum of votes in a survey held by Svět a divadlo magazine. We are very pleased to welcome participants of the ETC Conference to its first performance with English subtitles on Friday 15 May 2022.

 

About the play:

Vassa Zheleznova is a businesswoman.
Vassa Zheleznova is a mother.
Vassa Zheleznova’s husband is dying.
Vassa Zheleznova’s children are no good.
Luckily, her oldest daughter returns from abroad and perhaps could set things right.
Is there any FUTURE for Vassa Zheleznova?

The story of a woman who takes control over her family and ultimately leads her relatives to ruin most recently appeared on a Czech stage three decades ago.
