Theater of Petr Bezruč:
Protective reflex

theatre
an intimate drama about our secrets / a frozen summer night / the myth of the perfect sacrifice / what is the power of memory? / trivialization isn’t the science of baguettes / no means no / but who will speak the truth after twenty years?

A contemporary Irish play that grips the audience with its exploration of sexual violence. An evening that brings to life the memory of a single night. A night that changed many lives. In which direction and for how long must we run to escape the crushing truth? And is that even possible? A confrontation that brings hope. A trauma that brings solace. Let us stop turning a blind eye, restore our faith in justice, and step into a new day.
