Invitation for a monologue based on a short story by Karel Čapek.

Who writes anonymous hate mail? And why?

In this monologue, we are introduced to somebody who has given these questions a lot of thought. And very nearly stumbles on some answers.

The story was written in 1938 and the events take place in Prague. There were no chats nor bots around, but the city had a very efficient pneumatic mail system…

By way of Čapek’s text, this is an investigation into our eternal capacity for hatred and what that hatred does to us.

 

On stage, as Mr Diviš:                        Maria Norgren

Director:                                                Ester Holmén

Translation:                                          Karin Eriksson

 

The performance will be about 20 minutes long, in Swedish. Afterwards there will be time for a short discussion and questions.

The performance is part of the festival “2 weeks in May”. You can find the program HERE.
