We at Cimrman English Theatre would like to wish Mr. Svěrák many happy returns and many congratulations on his 90th birthday.

We hope he has a wonderful day spending time with family and friends; and, of course, much of the nation as the special anniversary performance from the Žižkovské divadlo Járy Cimrmana will be streamed to cinemas throughout the Czech Republic.

We were delighted and privileged to be invited by Ian Willoughby, to give a talk about CET at the Vaclav Havel Library. We had an an opportunity to tell the audience not only about our origins, our way of working, the process of translations, but also to reaffirm our love of the Cimrman texts, Czech culture and our love of this country; it was a lovely experience and evening.

For those who wanted to attend, but couldn't, we will post a link below. But, for all expats, there will be further English- speaking events coming up in the future that embrace a number of stimulating topics. So, please do check out their website...

In Conversation With… Cimrman English Theatre
Prague’s Cimrman English Theatre has been performing English-language versions of plays from the much-loved Divadlo Járy Cimrmana for over a decade. But does the idiosyncratic, and very Czech, humour really translate into English? And how accurate are comparisons with the UK’s Monty Python comic troupe, which also dates back to the late 1960s? These questions and more will be answered by three core members of the Cimrman English Theatre: Brian Stewart, Adam Stewart and Peter Hosking.

In Conversation With… is an occasional series of discussions in English hosted by Ian Willoughby of Radio Prague International.

The Václav Havel Library functions as a centre for the documentation and research of modern Czech history, with an emphasis on promoting the ideas of VH.
