Anniversary of the Velvet Revolution in Czech Republic
November 17, 2016
In 1989, Vaclav Havel and his friends lead Czechoslovakia into democracy, a “velvet” revolution, with no violence. On that eventful day, director, Bonnie Stein with Vit Horejs (Czechoslovak American Marionette Theatre) were in Prague and interviewed President Havel for an article in the Village Voice. Occasionally, GOH Productions will present an activity to celebrate this day.
