The Memo is one of V clav Havel's most popular plays, and this new translation is by Havel's most prolific translator, Paul Wilson.
An office has adopted a new official language, Ptydepe, in an attempt to make communication more scientific.
But the new language may truly be a tool for power.
Havel's play was able to slip by the Communist Czech censors in 1965, despite its veiled political commentary.
Part of the Havel Collection, a series of new translations of the work of V clav Havel, from Theater 61 Press.
