The third production in a series of Monoteater productions on the theme of "A Man's Life". In its first year, the theatre, which started in 2009, dealt with the early stages of a man's life in the monocomedy "The Husband", in which Jan Uuspõld explored in depth the differences between men and women. In March 2010, Monoteater staged the monocomedy "The Father", which took the audience into the sometimes crazy period of a young man's life, when a big change is about to take place - a baby is about to be born into the family. In April 2012, the audience was introduced to the next important stage in the man's life - a man and a father about to become a grandfather.

Cimrman in the World of Music

December 2006 •Czech

The original score was in a sorry state: the notes were carelessly marked, the lines were broken, and the paper was covered in smudges. I took the utmost care in reconstructing it: I erased the smudges, traced the lines with a ruler, blackened the bellies of the quarter notes, and added tails to the eighth and sixteenth notes. I believe that today's version of the work will stand up to even the most rigorous standards.

Pub in the Glade

January 1997 •Czech

On the occasion of the opening of the famous Vienna "Riesenrad," a competition was held for the best operetta. A Czech, Jára Cimrman, also submitted his entry, a sweeping seven-hour work entitled "Proso." Due to what was perhaps his only negative trait, a slight stinginess, he did not send the score by registered mail, which allowed Franz Lehár, Johann Strauss, Oskar Nedbal, and other members of the jury to literally tear apart the brilliant operetta fresco. After many decades, a team of Czech Cimrmanologists has proven that the author of the world-famous melodies from Die Fledermaus, Polská krev, and many other operettas is the forgotten Pojizeřan Cimrman.

Dumb Bobes, or Czech Tarzan

January 1997 •Czech

The result of a clash between two intellectual forces: the artist's irrepressible creative instinct and the equally irrepressible instinct of the small Czech self-sufficient farmer. While on the one hand we see an admirable effort to understand and portray the world and get to the essence of human behavior, on the other hand we encounter only a mundane effort to dry a few mushrooms for the winter. In the case of this play, Josef Padevět's small, bitter world unfortunately prevails.

The Stand In

November 1997 •Czech

Poverty was one of the many unfortunate aspects of Cimrman's life. His traveling theater company, Lipany, suffered from high actor turnover. If an actor's departure was agreed upon well in advance, the situation could be managed. However, if it happened with shouting and slamming doors, often just a few hours before the performance, the troupe and its director experienced some tense moments. Such experiences form the backdrop to the play. Lovers of the work of this unrecognized Czech artist are now able to access testimony from this area of the master's life, in which his destiny was most fulfilled—the theater.

Blaník

January 1997 •Czech

Cimrman sees the reason for the popularity of the Blanik legend in Bohemia mainly in the geographical location of our homeland. In agreement with Palacký, he was aware that "we are here in Europe like a grain between two millstones. From the west, German imperialism presses upon us, and from the east, the expansionism of the Great Russian colossus crushes us. It is no wonder that a small nation under such pressure seeks supernatural and even miraculous protection, for only a miracle can enable it to survive here."

Will Peter take the risk to clandestinely host his "old" boss? And if so, under what condition? Pierre finally accepted. Named six times for Molières, four times awarded, this play by Jean-Philippe Daguerre has been adapted for the cinema with, in the main roles, Daniel Auteuil, Sara Giraudeau and Gilles Lellouche.

Paul F Taylor: Pick Of The Litter

December 2018 •English

Offbeat, quirky and often delivered at breakneck speed, take a leap into the unknown with Paul F Taylor's blend of daft character comedy, animal impersonations, and surreal story-telling. Expertly keeping the Comedy Police at bay, (but falling foul of that pesky Gorilla) this mad-cap, curly haired comic executes his material with both admirable skill and silliness.

Stuart Laws Is All In

April 2023 •English

Stuart Laws ('You'll struggle to find a comedian with a better jokes per minute rate... like a one-man episode of Arrested Development' Fest) acclaimed Edinburgh Fringe and tour show Stuart Laws is All In. The show sees Stuart reflect on the day his life changed forever: when he risked everything in a Las Vegas poker tournament. Is he a winner or a loser? Can he burn the candle at both ends? And has he been infected by the Willennium Bug? A show about making difficult decisions, choosing different paths and gettin' jiggy wit' it from the leftfield observationalist and intricate gag-weaver. “A deliriously fun and nonsensical hour full of tiny little treats, Stuart Laws Is All In defiantly stands proud as a show not to be taken seriously in any way, shape or form.” ★★★★ The List
