Marysha

← Back to programme
The theatre performance Marysha is inspired by the play written by Mrštík brothers. We have attempted to explore this classic piece of art through our own search and investigation. Why are we still captivated by Marysha? Why doesn’t she have a rest in the library of classics? Why does she still have something to say?

We are born into a world we have not chosen. Into a world of costumes sewn by someone else. Into a world of promises made by someone else. We are thrown into existence. Are we pure? Maybe. Conscience is not only a fear of punishment. Not a bit of it. Conscience is that horror of knowing what is right and not doing it anyway… or you do what is necessary to be done to survive even though you smash the law into a thousand pieces.

A small but practical lure which you manipulate without the help of your hands which may be prepared to act immediately. A very effective tool for enticing diminutive predators.

I am all baffled now, I am all dizzy.
Stinging and stinging…
Here come the horses, here comes the cats.
You are all bastards.

Why have you not finished your drink?
