Petr Zelenka (b. 1967), director of the play "Teremin", established himself as a film director in the 1990s, making successful films such as Visací zámek 1982–2007, Mňága (Happy End), Knoflíkáři (Buttoners) and Rok ďábla (Year of the Devil). He also wrote the screenplay for David Ondříček’s Samotáři (Loners). His theatrical debut came in 2001 when he directed his own play, Příběhy obyčejného šílenství (Tales of Ordinary Madness), shown at the Pilsen festival four years ago. He also directed a film version of it. Zelenka presented Teremin last May at a series of script readings in Leeds, New York and Washington.
