MAYDAY
A PERFORMANCE ON THE BORDERS OF THEATRE, A PROFESSIONAL DRILL AND A CATASTROPHIC DISASTER
In cooperation with the Prague Quadrennial and KALD DAMU, the Vosto5 Theatre prepared an original performance loosely based on a playful intervention in the public space entitled Second City created for the 4+4 Days in Motion Festival and the Divadelní Flora Olomouc.
It is so far the largest production of its kind – a simulation of a plane crash in Charles Square in the centre of Prague. The audience were witnesses to the real intervention of firefighters and rescue workers via wireless headphones, mixing in scraps of real dialogue with original soundbites.
Mayday is a unique chance to experience an intense performance on the borders of theatre, professional drill and a catastrophic disaster.
