“A sung tale of migrant workers…their complicated, defiant polyphony is the saddest, purest, most arresting sound.!”  The Observer

“Maja Jawor, Matej Matejka, and Hana Vardzinova in Sclavi/The Song of an Emigrant”

After attempting to find his fortune in America for several years, an anonymous worker returns to his village in Slovakia.  His place is taken.  The emigrant’s effort to fit back into the fabric of his homeland finds him in a virtual ‘no man’s land’, without rights, a family, or cultural identity.  The Latin word sclavi means both Slavs and slaves at the same time, and Slavs still remain a cheap labor force in the world.  One of the Czech Republic’s preeminent theatrical companies, Farm in the Cave draws on folk songs, letters from emigrants, and a novel by Karel Capek to create a dynamic tapestry of beat-filled melodies, multi-voiced songs, and raw physical action.  Founded in 2001, this award-winning company has performed in the Netherlands, Poland, Germany, Croatia, Slovakia, Great Britain, South Korea, Italy, Spain, and Argentina. 

The production will be performed in many languages.  Audiences will be provided with the text in English so that they many follow along with the performance.
