Living in Truth: An Afternoon of Short Plays by Václav Havel and a Conversation on Civil Courage at Globe Auditorium, Florida State University

The Rosenstrasse Civil Courage Foundation presents staged readings of short works by Czech playwright, dissident, and statesman Václav Havel, followed by a public talkback exploring truth, conformity, resistance, moral compromise, and civil courage. The staged readings will feature Jeffrey Mandel, John Stevenson, Caleb Goodman, Jessica Frasier, and Emily Cole. Presented in conjunction with Havel 90, an international commemoration of Havel's 90th birthday, the program connects Havel's concept of living in truth with the mission of the Rosenstrasse Civil Courage Foundation and the history of the Rosenstrasse protest.
