"By taking you to the backstage of my being, I force myself to retreat to an even more remote depth." 

An adult man gets approached by an authoritative high school teacher who wants to draw him back into the world of adolescence, embarrassment, awkward intimacy, erotic awakenings, compotes, and poses. Sadly, this charming futility collides with the reality of intellectual snobbery, feigned sophistication, and "modernity."

In a jungle of grimaces, pretense, and slogans, it is necessary to create conditions for one's own authentic expression. However, these expressions exhibit elements of intrusive drama - a fly, a meatball, underwear, and a window behind which lies a deep, dark forest. Everything external is deforming. It is necessary to face the fact that one cannot become oneself. To be human means to be unnatural. Reality appears in the unreality to which man is condemned.

My clumsy and compromising self, which was supposed to remain hidden, finds its voice in the form of a disharmonious quartet.

The first Czech theatrical adaptation of the novel that brought Witold Gombrowicz into the literary limelight.
