The Visit from Prehistory
at Bubny Trains station

Theater performance based on the book and life story of Petr Ginz, a young artist, writer, and editor-in-chief of the Terezín magazine VEDEM. The play intertwines a fantasy adventure story inspired by Jules Verne with the chilling reality of a teenage boy’s fate during the Protectorate era.

On October 21st and 22nd, we performed several shows at Prague Bubny Station as part of the “From Testimony to Parable” project, in which we have been collaborating with the Memorial of Silence for a long time.

Prague does not have an active memorial dedicated to the stories of the Holocaust. Bubny Station is a place that aims to offer modern education and public dialogue about the past, drawing parallels to events that cannot be passively observed. Neither in the past nor today. The silence of the silent majority is a warning motif that gave rise to the name “Memorial of Silence.”
