2002
The production was based on Ivan Olbracht's novel Nikola Šuhaj loupežník (Nikola Šuhaj the Robber). The music draws on Petr Ulrych's famous LP, which was released in 1974, won the Bílá vrána (White Crow) award from Mladý svět magazine, and subsequently inspired a production at Prague's Divadlo Ateliér theater. Among other things, the band Javory was formed on this occasion. The expanded band Javory also plays and sings in the 2002 production of the Brno City Theater, and additional musical numbers were created for it. Of the 25 numbers, more than half are new to the performance. Petr Ulrych won the A. Radok Award for his music. Director and author of the theatrical adaptation Stanislav Moša incorporated film footage into the production, which works wonderfully as a reminiscence of natural beauty. Also worth mentioning is the impressive choreography of the police and bandit choirs and the excellent acting and singing performances, led by Petr Štěpán in the lead role.

Troilos a Kressida
2024
Shakespeare's tragicomedy about the banality of love, pride and war performed by DJP in Trnava... Troilus and Cressida is a tragicomic play in which Shakespeare cynically portrays the fates of legendary Greek and Trojan heroes, but also the story of one destroyed love, and especially the image of a useless war. A pseudo-historical fresco that has perhaps never been more topical in the domestic socio-political context. What does a Trojan War look like in which the greatest icons of ancient Greece do not want to fight? A kidnapped Helen as a ridiculous pretext; a sulking and proud Achilles wallowing in a tent and refusing to fight; men who rely more on bickering backstage politics than on concrete deeds; pandering, revenge and, as befits a proper Shakespeare, blood and death.

Hot-Toe Mollie
1930
This jazzy short was one of two efforts in the very brief "Binko the Bear Cub" series. Completed in 1930 yet never exhibited in theaters. Created by a team of future animation stars including Preston Blair and brothers Bob and Tom McKimson, this fragmentary short of Binko haunting a run-down Mexican cantina whizzes along with funky, freaky visuals and fluid movement.

And On That Day
2021
And On That Day, written and directed by John Henry Soto, is a quietly powerful short film about what happens when a lifetime of silence reaches its breaking point. Robert has spent thirty years doing what’s expected—showing up to work, keeping his thoughts to himself, and living within restraint. On his final day before retirement, a simple farewell speech becomes something far more personal, carrying the weight of decades of unspoken truth. Soto trusts subtlety over spectacle. Small gestures, pauses, and expressions create tension, allowing the audience to feel the pressure of time closing in on a single moment. The performance feels grounded and human, making Robert instantly recognizable rather than dramatic or idealized. Clean visuals and measured pacing mirror Robert’s inner state, letting the film’s final moments resonate naturally. At its core, And On That Day asks a timeless question: what do we lose—or gain—by staying silent for so long?
