June 3 - July 15, 2006. Royal Court Theater, London. Starring Rufus Sewell as "a young man caught between political and cultural upheavals in Czechoslovakia and Britain in the 1950s and 1960s,"* and directed by Trevor Nunn (the man who brought the world Cats, among other things).
The play "spans the recent history of Czechoslovakia between the Prague Spring and the Velvet Revolution - but from the double perspective [thesis topic!] of Prague, where a rock 'n' roll band came to symbolise resistance to the regime, and the British left, represented by a Communist philosopher at Cambridge."**
WOOOO! I'm more pumped to find a way to get me to England in June than I am to find a job. Heh.
ETA: Now with links and a human-sized picture. This is what happens when banannagoats calls halfway through composing my post. Happy birthday, wifey!
