Synopsis

Ferdinand Vanek, the eternal dissident and the central character in Audience, Private View and this impressive autobiographical one-act, is approached by a friend whose future son-in-law, a song writer/singer and member of an opposition party, has been arrested.

Vanek is asked to formulate a protest resolution, collect signatures and activate interest abroad so that his friend can save his pregnant daughter's intended spouse without endangering his comfortable middle class existence.
