 | | "Prose of the Transsiberian and of Little Joan of France," a new work created by Vit Horejš and the Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre, is based on the 1913 poem in prose, "La Prose du Transsibérien et de la Pettite Jehanne de France" by Blaise Cendrars, a contemporary and a friend of Guillaume Appolinaire. |
 | | The poet's text is still quite timely as the beginning of the century and of the millennium is marked by upheavals in the border regions of the former Soviet Union which equal those Cendrars witnessed almost one hundred years ago. |
 | | "Prose of the Transsiberian and of Little Joan of France" was created in collaborative workshops between performers from the Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre from New York, artists from Minor Theatre, based in Prague, Czech Republic and dancers of Wyoming Dance Workshop. |
