What began as a forgotten manuscript in a basement became a story that transcends borders and generations.
Patrick Dewane’s grandfather, Lt. Col. Matt Konop, led the unit that liberated Southwestern Czechoslovakia in 1945—unaware that he was stepping into the very region his ancestors had emigrated from. Speaking the native Czech dialect, he was hailed by the townspeople as a liberator “from among us.” Today, his name appears on a monument in the Czech Republic, and his image hangs on plaques both abroad and in his hometown of Two Rivers, Wisconsin.
Patrick transformed this remarkable legacy into a one-man multimedia performance that has captivated audiences across the U.S. and Europe.
** Do Not Miss this wonderful production... Patrick is a dear friend of ours, and we personally love his play. -Danny Jerabek
