ONLINE LIVE READING, Q&A"Hot Summer of 68 (How We Ran)" is a tragicomedy based on a story of three Slovak women who decided to emigrate after the occupation of Czechoslovakia by Warsaw Pact troops in 1968. Following the protagonists journeys as they emigrate to Vienna, London, Haifa, and New York before they finally reconvene in Toronto, the play recounts key historical events through the banalities of daily life. As they search for a new home, Erika, Petra, and Sonya cannot make the meals they used to cook or even find the ingredients. The memories of their homemade cuisine become analogous to meanings of home and freedom. Hot Summer of '68 (How We Ran) (Slovakia). Playwright: Viliam Klimacek. Director: Christina Franklin.
