Combining of Realistic and Anti-illusionist methods in Contemporary Theatre
Píza, Ludvík ; MUSILOVÁ, Martina (advisor) ; AUGUSTOVÁ, Zuzana (referee)
This bachelor thesis attempts to describe some of the staging methods based on combining realistic and anti-illusionist components in European contemporary theatre, specifically of the examples of Woodcutters by Krystian Lupa and Regulation of Intimacy by Jiří Havelka. The major part of this thesis focuses on the first theatre production and consists of analysis of Woodcutters, a novel by Thomas Bernhard, and its theatre adaptation. In both cases, I focus on the general structure of these pieces, their work with time and space and their performative aspects. The comparison aims to describe the main common as well as different features of the novel and the staging concept based on a performative model.
The second part analyses the production Regulation of Intimacy and its staging concept of public confession. The aim is to depict the intentional usage of two opposing principles and the aesthetic experience it provides for the spectator.
In the end, I am trying to sum up depicted staging methods that prove the possibility of effectively combining realistic and anti-illusionist elements that may strengthen each other, coexist and organically permeate.

The poetics of Rudolf Sloboda in Astorka Korzo '90 Bratislava
Hladká, Tereza ; Christov, Petr (advisor) ; Šebová, Soňa (referee)
This work deals with the poetics of Slovak playwright Rudolf Sloboda on stage of the theatre Astorka Korzo '90.

Later, with the involvement of Juraj Nvota, it became a longer play for more actors. Furková plays the main protagonist Klára, based on Sloboda's memories of his own mother. This work is devided into six chapters, the first one focuses on the persona of Rudolf Sloboda, being a well-known fiction writer and new-born playwright. The second chapter deals with anti-heroism of Sloboda's protagonists and the concept of heroism in the theatre of the 1990's. The third chapter deals with the origins of Armageddon at Grb as a text and the creative process between Sloboda the writer, Furková the iniciator and Nvota the director.
