Forman 'ship-theater' sets sail on the Vltava
Following the success of their play Bouda-La Barraque in Belgium and in France, Petr and Matej Forman - the twin sons of the famous film director Milos Forman - have undertaken a new challenge. They've created a performance on a converted barge which they call a 'ship-theater', moored on the banks of the River Vltava. The play - Purple Sails - is based on a story by the Russian writer Alexander Grin. During a rather noisy on-board rehearsal, , Radio Prague's Beatrice Cady spoke to Matej Forman and began by asking him where the idea of a floating theatre had come from.
