Description:
'The Insect Play' is an unconventional and much-celebrated satire which tells the story of myriad insects and the multi-layered and complex society which binds them; its comical allegory serves to illuminate the competing philosophies of life doing battle in Europe in the first half of the twentieth century. It was first performed in Prague in 1922.
