Post your comments here about the play “The Memorandum” by Václav Havel. Michigan Tech’s Visual and Performing Arts Department will stage Vaclav Havel’s political satire, “The Memorandum,” in McArdle Theatre beginning February 27, the first performances of a Havel play in the local area. (See “Event Information” under Event Home.)

Director Christopher Plummer says he’s looked forward to staging one of Havel’s play for years, fascinated by the playwright’s sharp wit and his penetrating insight into how people attempt to control others in modern organizations. “I think people will find this play fascinating and thought-provoking,” Plummer says. “Plus, it’s an easy way to get in touch with one of the really interesting minds of our time.”

Plummer and the cast and crew are eager to hear audience comments on how Havel’s play relates to life here and now.
