On the main theatre stage in Gong<\/strong>, you can expect performances that blend humor, emotion and moments that might feel a little uncomfortable. \u2728<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Divadlo Petra Bezru\u010de<\/strong>, with its production ban\u00ed\u010dek, ale, ale, ale<\/strong>, dives into the world of Ban\u00edk fandom and shows just how close the emotions of the stadium are to those on stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Losers Cirque Company<\/strong> bring N\u00e1rodn\u00ed sb\u00edrka zlozvyk\u016f<\/strong>, a mix of contemporary circus and drama that, with a touch of irony, reminds us that none of us is completely without flaws. \ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Husa na prov\u00e1zku<\/strong>, in Dr\u017e\u00edm ti miesto<\/strong>, explores Czech-Slovak relationships with humor and perspective. Klicperovo divadlo<\/strong> then presents a tribute to Zuzana Navarov\u00e1, A pak usnu a vstanu<\/strong> \u2013 a strong, personal project combining theatre and music that stays with you long after it ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, a smaller stage is joining the programme \u2013 Gong stage \u2013 Mal\u00fd s\u00e1l<\/strong>, where we\u2019ll be watching everything up close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Norway Today <\/strong>brings a powerful story of two people who meet with one shared plan \u2013 to leave the world behind. But instead of a final ending, something unexpected begins to unfold between them. On a completely different note, Shrex: Hra o p\u0159e\u017eit\u00ed <\/strong>delivers generational chaos full of characters that feel uncomfortably familiar. \ud83e\udd2f Slam Puppetry<\/strong> proves that even puppets can be surprisingly uncompromising when given the space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And because sometimes the best response is simply to laugh at it all, there will be no shortage of improv and stand-up. Vosto5<\/strong> return with their Stand\u2019artn\u00ed kabaret <\/strong>\u2013 always different, always a little out of control. \ud83c\udf89 Nikola D\u017eoki\u010d<\/strong>, in his show Balkan Express<\/strong>, pushes things right to the edge \u2013 and if we thought we understood the difference between Czechs and the Balkans, he might prove us wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tali, Eli\u0161ka Soukupov\u00e1 and Kate\u0159ina Beran<\/strong> then show that even life\u2019s messiest moments can be turned into well-monetized material. Pozor, humor. \ud83d\ude43<\/p>\n\n\n
