The theater in Řeznická will offer the first title from the free trilogy of plays by Maria von Mayenburg in its Czech premiere.
Spring at the Theatre in Řeznická will bring the Czech premiere of the tragicomedy with a short but apt title Ex, by the acclaimed German playwright Maria von Mayenburg. Under the direction of Jakub Šmíd, the central roles will be played by actors Zuzana Zlatohlávková, Lenka Zbranková, and Jiří Š Hájek. The play is based on the biting and precise dialogue of the married couple Daniel and Sibille. The essentially problem-free life of a successful upper-middle-class couple with two children is strongly stagnating and deepening its crisis. When Daniel's ex shows up at the door one evening, there is no turning back. Or is there?

In May, the island between the arms of the Vltava River will transform into an open dance area with a view of the city and four stages spread across Štvanice. As the sun sets, the event will move indoors to Fuchs2, where it will continue until 6:00 AM.
