J. G. Tajovský: Ženský zákon

The City Theatre of Trenčín presents the comedy by J. G. Tajovský.

Traditionally, yet vividly and modernly – this is how we can describe our staging of the classic Slovak comedy The Women's Law, written by the founder of Slovak theatrical realism, Jozef Gregor Tajovský. Our effort to preserve and develop this heritage is reflected in the costumes made from original folk garments, while the actors and the stage openly acknowledge during the performance: “This IS theatre!” Here and now on stage, we offer you gentle humor and satire, emotions, action, and memories of how things were once and in some ways still are today... Enjoy the reign of the women’s law, characterized by love for children, uncompromisingness, humility, and pride.
