The Makyta Theatre Ensemble invites you to a fast-paced situational comedy by Slovenian playwright Vinko Möderndorfer:
Legs on Shoulders
Slovak translation, adaptation, and direction: Michal Babiak
Cast
Lukáš ………………………………….. Michal Václav
Marián ……………………………….. Juraj Budzovský
Lienka ………………………………… Petra Pobežalová
Max ……………………………………. Jaroslav Buček
Father ……………………………….. Peter Pantúček
Mother ………………………………. Katarína Bizoňová
Prompting: Renáta Ďurišová
Technical support: Pavol Mareček
Dynamic, grotesque, and at times provocative, this production walks a fine line between comedy and drama. The characters struggle not only with society’s expectations but also with themselves, while a wedding—traditionally a symbol of order and social convention—becomes a space of chaos, revelation, and confrontation.
With both humour and sensitivity, Möderndorfer explores how fragile the boundaries between normality and otherness can be, and how easily a seemingly stable world can fall apart under the weight of truth.
