Harshly as well as humorously exposed etudes of married life, mirroring apart from the twists and turns of Bergman’s parents’ relationship, key themes of his work: adultery, loneliness, fear and anxiety. Sober in set design, Jan Nebeský’s adaptation scores with amazing acting performances and intelligent dialogues charged with bitterness and emotions.

You can see the production PRIVATE CONFESSIONS starring Trmíková – Pechlát – Švehlík on Thursday 23 May at 8pm, on Friday 24 May and Saturday 25 May at 4.30 pm at Divadlo hudby (Theatre of Music). 

“Three amazing actors in a plain stage design, their weapons are intelligent dialogues loaded with meaning and emotions – that is all you need for a unique theatre experience.”

PETRA ZACHATÁ, THEATRE NEWSPAPER AWARD – SURVEY, 7 January 2019

 

“The entire triptych by Nebeský and Trmíková (Medeia, The Waste Land, Private Confessions) is amazing in that they manage to take such an old and overused theme of a relationship between a woman and a man and approach it each time from a different point of view, in different circumstances and with different imagery. And each time with a different acting energy. Their three plays rank among the best of last year’s production in the country.”

JANA MACHALICKÁ, LIDOVKY.CZ, 27 January 2019

 

“The Private Confessions production is a characteristic homage to Bergman, intimate, modest but definitely not casual.“
