Šuhaj (An Original Adaptation of a Classic Novel)

It is 11 November 1918; the war is over. Old orders are giving way to new ones. Victorious Romanian troops plunder the villages. The thoughts of the poor inhabitants of Koločava turn to Nikola Petrovič Šuhaj. Born a Hungarian, he lived as a Rusyn and died a Czechoslovak. A deserter, Eržika’s husband, an outlaw, a hero, a scapegoat, a celebrity, a bandit, a murderer—who was Šuhaj really, and what is merely myth, shaped by the imagination of Koločava’s inhabitants and by the propaganda of gendarmes and officials?
An original stage adaptation of Nikola Šuhaj loupežník by Ivan Olbracht.
