...Verse plays aren't noted for evoking mass gut reactions. The ambitious and verbally complex Mayer-Babe adaptation gets a little lost in the tempest nightly at Agassiz, and that's not to say that the play is weaker than its dazzling production. A Tim Mayer and (to a lesser extent) a Thom Babe show is like a great big present; there's so much of this one you'll just have to see it twice if you are willing to admit to the gluttony Mayer and Babe so skillfully cater...

Along the glittering Vltava River, bearded young men and miniskirted girls collect signatures on a petition demanding that the government resume diplomatic relations with Israel; after they have collected 30,000 signatures, they are invited to the office of the foreign ministry to have tea and cake-and discuss government policy. At a meeting in the city of Moravská Ostrava, Czechoslovak intellectuals face an audience of workers...
