SUMMARY:Theatre Play 25.5.2026 - Hitler's President
DESCRIPTION:We will attend the new theatre play\, Hitler's President at DPO
 H Theatre with our High Schoolers to learn about Slovakia's history.\n\nPr
 iest. Criminal. War criminal. Hitler's wartime president. Jozef Tiso.\n\n\
 nShould we talk about it? Is it inevitable? And necessary? Isn't it tiring
  and eternally repetitive? Reminding us of our guilt and weakness? Tiso\, 
 for eternal folk and guards martyr\, for truth lovers a shameful part of t
 he fascist machine. Pride or shame? Dilemmas of the past soaked into the p
 resent. Can authentic independence be built on authentic vassalage? Build 
 the future on an inauthentic past? This play is not a critical biography o
 f the butcher's son. It is a search\, a merciless interrogation and search
  for the reasons that turned a priest into a murderer. Into a man standing
  at the head of a small country\, leading "his nation" through fascist inf
 atuation to their own bright tomorrows of a war state. Enemies and parasit
 es must get out of the way at all costs. Fly out the chimney. The obedient
  will be rewarded. The aristocracy satisfied. The feeling of one's own sma
 llness avenged. The voice of reason falls silent\, the voice of the heart 
 is not heard. But there are those who\, fortunately\, resisted this madnes
 s. Their humanity did not drown in the Váh\, Hron\, or Danube. The presid
 ent and his opponent. A refugee from Auschwitz who testified about Nazi at
 rocities. A play as a testimony to the absurdity of history from the far s
 ide of conscience. Jewish applicants for exceptions\, grotesque aristocrac
 ies\, a brave priest and a boa. This play is not about convincing the conv
 inced\, it is a dreamy grotesque about saving freedom and democratic value
 s. And about the belief that hope and determination can be born from the h
 orrors of the past.\n\nBased on the book by Madeline Vadkerty\, The Prover
 b Mr. President.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\n&nbsp\;
