Tales of Common Insanity
''Tales of Common Insanity'' ((チェコ語:Příběhy obyčejného šílenství)) (2001) is a play by Petr Zelenka which won the Alfréd Radok Award for Best Play. After its opening in Prague, the play received productions in other Czech cities, as well as translations and productions in Slovakia, Kraków, Poland, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada; Germany, Hungary and Bulgaria, and it was translated into Russian (language). Zelenka wrote and directed a film adaptation of the comedy, which was released as ''Wrong Side Up'' in 2005 and was also highly successful.
==Plot summary==
The comedy centers around Peter, a bachelor in his mid-thirties. He desperately wants to win back his girlfriend Jana and asks his friend Midge for help. Midge, another loner unable to form a long-lasting relationship with a woman, has gone through many break-ups and therefore considered himself an expert. Petr also has to pay a visit to his discontented parents.
His mother ruined the family by endless preaching. She developed a strong passion for blood donation and gets alarmed by the war in Chechnya. The father, a former commentator of communist newsreel, escapes to his own thoughts. He is preoccupied with the idea of whether a light bulb would fit in a mouth. Peter's neighbour, a composer fighting hard to get royalties for performance of his music by synthesizers in elevators, also is revealed to be at least a bit insane.
The cast includes 8 male and 7 female characters. The character of Petr's pedophile boss is sometimes omitted.
