Description
A premiere USA/Czech collaboration of riveting physical theater by award winning actors and designers. A subversive, imprisoned comic actor and his jailer/interrogator explore a surreal friendship that reveals the guts of power grasped, denied, and surrendered.

Coming to The Marsh is the INTERNATIONAL CZECH THEATER FESTIVAL that harvests a long developing series of mutual cooperation and long term inspiration of the movement artists, clowns, and directors connected with two leading master teachers: Ctibor Turba in the Czech Republic and James Donlon of the Flying Actor Studio in San Francisco. The exchange is produced by The Marsh, Flying Actor Studio, The Lit Moon World Theater Festival in Santa Barbara, and HoME o.s., a Prague-based international alternative theater company.

The cutting edge Prague theater Alfred ve dvore (Theater Alfred) managed by Motus o.s. is also helping to produce the project. Motus creates a framework of creative development by supporting alternative and unusual theatrical artistic activities, by actively improving artist's work conditions, and by bringing new directions in art to Czech audiences. Theater Alfred is a member of the NEW WEB project--a network for the circulation of independent theater projects throughout the Czech Republic and neighboring countries. The long range goal of the INTERNATIONAL CZECH THEATER FESTIVAL is to provide opportunities for theater artists connected with The Marsh to tour in Central  and Eastern Europe through NEW WEB.

The Marsh will host the award-winning ALBERT'S FEAR, POLARIS, BRICK CIRCK, and FLUSH, a new Czech-American collaboration. The artists will also offer workshops and lectures comparing the contemporary Czech and American physical theater scenes at FLYING ACTOR STUDIO in San Francisco (www.flyingactorstudio.com).

NOTE: No one under 15 years old will be admitted.
