| Description | The novel Nationalstraße (Czech original: Národní třída) written by Jaroslav Rudiš has been staged in German by Theater Bremen, Staatsschauspiel Dresden, and Hans Otto Theater in Potsdam. Vandam, the main character of the novel, has his own perception of the antagonists, which can be interpreted as right-wing populist. This article analyses each scene of the three aforementioned stagings available through video recordings, focusing on the constructions of Vandam's enemies – from the perspectives of Parody and Audience. The article aspires to offer a multidisciplinary approach to interpretation of the present-day issues raised in the performances; hence sociological and linguistic perspectives as well as cultural, political, and theatre studies approaches are applied in the analysis. |
