Spitfire Company

Spitfire Company is an artistic company that includes works of physical, visual and dance theatre. It is currently one of the most progressive ensambles of author theatre in the Czech Republic. The most important and characteristic aspects of the ensemble's work are: searching of an original physical language of each particular performance, emphasis on experiencing performer's state of being that generates very present emotions, dealing with a human's limitation and his/her existential situation.
