Tomas Zmeskal: Municipal museum

Tomáš Zmeškal chose the genre of comedy for his debut in the field of radio drama. Together with his heroes, we find ourselves in a small town, or - as the author puts it - a town or even just a bloated village. The peaceful life of the village is disturbed by an archaeological find in its cadastre. This is terra sigillata pottery. Its origin could date back to the second century AD and its appearance would also prove contact with ancient Rome. And that would be a discovery of major importance! This would open up new horizons for the village, which is plagued by unemployment, lack of interest from tourists and a population exodus. At the council meeting, in the opening scene of the comedy, a plan is born to build a Municipal Museum with the help of the European Union to manage this rare find. But are there many obstacles in the way? David Novotný plays the ambitious mayor, Andrea Elsnerová plays his assistant, Martin Myšička and Dana Syslová also play the roles.
