In this production, the method of the author’s collective creation is replaced by a dramatic text, written this time by Peter Lomnický. The theatre company tries to try out Chekhov’s Ivanov. The relationships between the actors are less than ideal and the authority of the ensemble leader contributes to this. This results in an attempt at group psychotherapy with an invited expert. The play interweaves specific asides and lines from Ivanov with asides that elaborate, elaborate and parody general themes from the Russian classic; all ultimately subversively commented on by dialogue sparking with the irresistible mixture of intellectual cunning and exasperating obtuseness that is inherent in this ensemble.
This play was created with financial support of the Slovak Arts Council, Bratislava Regional Funding Scheme, Foundation of City of Bratislava and also by funding from Bratislava – Old Town.
