Tom\u00e1\u0161 Diani\u0161ka<\/strong> (*1984) studied acting at the Theatre Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague and became an ensemble member of the F. X. \u0160alda Theatre in Liberec, where he played more than 30 roles. He is the main author and actor of the F. X. Kalba Theatre, which was originally founded as a “punk offshoot” of the F. X. \u0160alda Theatre, but later became independent and merged with the Palmovka Theatre. As a playwright, he took part in the productions Zvrhl\u00e1 Margaret<\/em> or House of Love 2: N\u00e1vrat hezk\u00fdch hoch\u016f<\/em> at the A studio Rub\u00edn Theatre. For the F. X. \u0160alda Theatre in Liberec he wrote Googling and Fucking<\/em>, Mickey Mouse je mrtv\u00fd<\/em> (eng: Mickey Mouse is Dead), LSDown<\/em>, Logo<\/em>, Diani\u0161ka je B\u016fh<\/em> (eng: Diani\u0161ka is God<\/em>) and Atomov\u00e1 ko\u010di\u010dka<\/em> (eng: Atom Cat<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has been a member of the Divadlo pod Palmovkou (Theatre under Palmovka) ensemble since September 2014. He has performed several plays at the PALM OFF studio stage: 1000 v\u011bc\u00ed, co m\u011b serou<\/em> (1000 Things I Think Suck<\/em>; theatre adaptation of the blog of the same name), Ml\u010den\u00ed bob\u0159\u00edk\u016f<\/em> (Eng. The Silence of the Beavers<\/em>), Jak sbalit \u017eenu 2.0 <\/em>(Eng: How to Pick Up a Woman 2.0<\/em>, a theatre adaptation of the book of the same name by T. Bar\u00e1nek), Pus\u0165te Donnu k maturit\u011b!<\/em>, Posledn\u00ed d\u016fvod, pro\u010d se nezab\u00edt<\/em> (Eng. The Last Reason Not to Kill Yourself<\/em>; theatre adaptation of the blog of the same name) and Bezruk\u00fd Frant\u00edk<\/em> (Eng. The Armless Frant\u00edk<\/em>, written with I. Orozovich; transferred to the big stage of the theatre at Palmovka due to great audience interest), 294 state\u010dn\u00fdch<\/em> (Eng. 294 Brave Ones<\/em>) and Encyklopedie ak\u010dn\u00edho filmu<\/em> (Eng. Encyclopaedia of Action Film<\/em>), both already conceived for the big stage. Tom\u00e1\u0161 Diani\u0161ka also acts in all these productions and directs many of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to his home theatre Divadlo pod Palmovkou, Tom\u00e1\u0161 Diani\u0161ka works as a writer and actor with several Prague theatres, including MeetFactory, Divadlo LET\u00cd, A Studio Rub\u00edn, Masopust Theatre Group, Chemick\u00e9 divadlo (Eng: Chemical Theatre), Divadlo X10 and others. He has worked as a director at the Chamber Theatre Ar\u00e9na Ostrava (V. Klim\u00e1\u010dek: Comics<\/em>) and at the Petr Bezru\u010d Theatre in Ostrava – here he staged his plays Spottschau<\/em> (Engl. Transky, body, vte\u0159iny<\/em>) and \u0160pinarka<\/em> (Engl. \u0160pinarov\u00e1<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He describes his plays as pop pieces that examine well-known cultural phenomena in a satirical way. In his original, eclectic style, he mixes different genres, incorporating dime novels, westerns or comic heroes alongside documentary material. He has received a number of important prizes for his plays. His production of his own play Transky, body, vte\u0159iny<\/em> at the Petr Bezru\u010d Theatre in Ostrava was named best production of the year and best Czech play of the year at the 2019 Czech Theatre Critics’ Awards. His most recent play, 294 Brave, was named best play of the year at the 2020 Theatre Critics’ Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
