Anička a letadýlko (Annie and a toy airplane) is an original theatre project that has been active on the Czech theatre scene for 20 years. Anna Pola maps her life in an almost diary-like form through a series of performances in which themes such as insomnia, loss of inner strength, fascination with platonic love, encounters with chauvinistic directors, a lack of inner spirituality, and the search for a real male hero emerge. With the help of dramaturg Petr Pola and a dream creative team, she situates these stories in fairy-tale landscapes for both children and adults. She uses forms of puppet theatre, object theatre, and live acting, along with a large amount of original music and a distinctive visual style.
