The Father Watches over Daughter - Ondřej Novotný
A video clip with an excerpt of the play The Father Watches over Daughter by Ondřej Novotný selected by ETC Drama Committee 2021.
Ondřej Novotný‘s The Father Watches Over the Daughter is a play built around a young father taking his pre-school daughter for a walk in a park and to the playground. The play tackles intergenerational dialogue, with dynamic situations and very natural interactions between the different characters. The diversity of those characters and the polyphonic structure of the play contribute to creating a particular atmosphere, while the insertion of the main protagonist’s lines brings a subtle and well-mastered touch of poetry.
