Tom Stoppard: TRAVESTIE- complex visual interpretation
Kürner, Marjetka ; Dušek, Jan (advisor) ; David, Milan (referee)
Travesties is a refined comedy, written by one of the best and most important modern playwrights, Tom Stoppard. it was published in 1974 and counts as one of major works of the english author, born in Czechoslovakia. It brings together three important historical figures: modernist James Joyce, dadaist Tristan Tzara and revolutionist Lenin. These three are brought togeteher by main character, Henry Carr with his imagination and confused memories. By carefully studying the play and seeking inspiration in the visually attractive dadaist movement, I have elaborated my own interpretation of the work and a concept for scenography and costumes design for each character of Travesties.

Specific cases of the space-creating function of a costume (Ch. Marlowe: Dr. Faustus)
Stojčevski, Dragan ; Dušek, Jan (advisor) ; David, Milan (referee)
In this thesis, I am trying to answer the question of what space-creatingfunction does a dramatic person carry. I an searching for ways in whichset-design creates space, especially specific environments, by the meansof a living actor. I limited the presented examples to my personal experience with dramatictheatre. The possibilities (not only of the box theatre) are explained onthe examples of A.P. Chekhovś The Cherry Orchard, Shakespeareś Midsummer Nightś Dream and are further analyzed on the example of thefunction of the chorus in Christopher Marloweś The Tragic History of Dr. Faustus. The core of the thesis consists of the scenographic study of this play. The presentation also includes the Faust performance that was shown onthe Third International Biennale Vestiges of Industry 2005 in Kladno and is described in the end.

Bertolt Brecht Galileo's life (possibilities of B. Breht in contemporary theatre)
Ďurik, Andrej ; Dušek, Jan (advisor) ; Glogr, Karel (referee)
In my thesis I endeavoured to document the development of the view of Brecht?s works in our countries. It means mapping the interpretation attempts in the Czech Republic, coping with Brecht?s theoretical work, and last but not least with Brecht as a political man with social feeling due to what he remained many times miscomprehended. It is certain that the history mentions a large-minded, talented, educated personality, a strongly up to self-destructively hard-working one. On the one hand, he is artistically sensitive and fine, however, on the other hand he is a disintegrated and a very complicated person. In the course of time, I came to the conclusion that it is likely impossible to fully join a Brecht theoretician and a Brecht dramatist, while the theory of epic theatre significantly hungers for a formal aspect though on the other hand, it seems to fail to conform to ease and poetry of his dramas. It is important to say that Bertolt Brecht was practically a communist during all his life in a complicated period. His relationship to communism was developing and it can be learned that this relationship had undergone a long way from enthusiasm up to full disillusion. That is why this fact appears in my thesis; it is a statement, a truth about a great artist and a truth about the view and contemporary interpretations in our countries where he was quoted and belauded, as necessary.
At staging, it is impossible to consider all aspects of Brecht personality. It is good since it leaves space for a man, one can be both Brecht a bit and also himself. It provides ?space? while showing a human being in his complicacy, it is as a search in the human soul and mind. He does not psychologize, he just states, shows a human being in particular situations including his behaviour, and at the end all these situations make a whole picture about us and about our period. Therefore, we can say that Bertolt Brecht is a great author of great dramas with timeless themes. His characters reflect contemporary people. As if nothing has changed, just the time is perceived in a bit different way, it oscillates and befogs our perception, with decoding matters becoming more difficult for us but with the essence remaining the same as before. His dramas are interesting as for formal aspect, they are ?up-to-date? providing space also for an experiment. They may serve as a formal reflection, the beauty of speech for itself.
