Maryša

A poster with Maryša in the middle and many people around her looking at her with judgement in their eyes.

Coming: November 2024

The first play in our 2024–2025 season on mismatched relationships is a classic Czech realist drama following a woman in an arranged marriage. It will be the first time the play is performed in English.

Maryša is a young woman who is pushed through life by everyone around her. She is forced to choose between honor and happiness, burning out and fading away, morality and love. Will she end up in a "life to drown for"?

The play was written in 1894 by the brothers Alois and Vilém Mrštík, who were inspired by real events in a village not far from Brno. It represents a foundational work of Czech realism long-known to Czechs, at least those who studied for the maturita at the end of secondary school. This will be its English-language premiere.
