Bloody sonnets by Hviezdoslav staged in English in DPOH (23.1.2025 16:00)

Iconic anti-war poetry by the iconic Slovak poet Pavol Orszagh Hviezdoslav can be seen in a unique performance not only in English translation at the Pavol Orszagh Hviezdoslav Theatre in Bratislava. The language spoken on stage combines English with German, French, Italian, Hungarian, Czech, Slovak, Polish and Russian. Vienna-based Slovak director David Paska worked with Bratislava and New York-based actresses Annamaria Janekova and Katarina Morhacova to create a powerful protest against war as such. Also at the Pavol Orszagh Hviezdoslav Theatre, a special photographic exhibition by Andrea Kalinova shows the dwindling glory of ski slopes in times of environmental crisis.
