The Garden Party written by Vaclav Havel
This absurdist drama portrays a young chess fanatic propelled into the business world by his conservative
father and neurotic mother, only to be immersed into a live challenge of corporate checkmate.
The GARDEN PARTY, published in 1963, is Havel's first full-length play. It is characteristic of the
humanist literary movement on the rise in Prague.
The Festival honors the man, Vaclav Havel, on his 70th birthday. He has led a full life: as a playwright, the
former Czech Republic President, a literary leader, and a social/political activist. His name and writings,
banned by Communists in the 1970s, have become significant studies of the Czech oppression.
Ultimately driven from power by Havel and other activists, the Communist Regime gave way to the
Czech Republic, of which Vaclav Havel became president in 1993 through his impact on the civic forum.
