| Popis | After the occupation in 1968, the representatives of alternative theatres felt the disintegration and collapse of all Czech society. They looked for a new basement that would make possible to create a new community – parallel polis. These tendencies had culminated in the period of perestrojka and glasnosť, and later during the November days of 1989, when the principles built in the parallel polis had spread to all Czech society thanks to the theatres. In post-November time the new social-political content didn’t find its new form. Czech theatres rejected social-political function of the theatre and for long ten years they stayed off this kind of themes. |
