An interactive opera and performance installation with live video and projected art inspired by the solar system, the work immerses us in a mysterious dreamlike realm where we intimately experience motion, imagery, sounds and visual and dramatic tensions between the world of the nun and the world of Galileo."

By Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre
Written and directed by Vít Hořejš

"Was Socrates executed by a vigilant Athenian 'department of homeland security?' Incorporating traditional Czech marionettes, found objects and shadow puppets, the interdisciplinary performance The Republic adapts the Plato text of the same name, incorporating elements of the Crito and Phaedo dialogues. In the 5th century B.C., as now, political movements led by demagogues and sophists crush the voice of reason."
