But all the controversy that the theatrical staging of the play in Prague aroused detracts from the work itself. It is not a blockbuster, a life-defining statement, or a philosophical wrap-up of a world-renowned career. It's even hard to cal it a grand re-entrance onto the theatrical scene. It's just another Havel play, and I felt throughout that Havel was struggling and playing with this opposition all along, being very conscious of the fact that his audience (at home and abroad) will want to have a lot to say about his first play in over 13 years (or something like that). He starts to be epic, he follows classical themes (Cherry Orchard most prominently), makes very obvious references to politics of his era, yet every time we're not sure if he really wants to make a grand statement, if the orchard being cleared at the end in order to build a mall is satirical or just pointless, and if vice-president Klein is really Vaclav Klaus (Havel's real life political archenemy) or if Havel is just trying to stick it to us for expecting him to be so straightforward.

Chancellor Rieger is leaving office. But does leaving office necessarily mean that he, his mistress and his extended family have to leave the state villa, which has been their home for years? While his former secretary, and the former secretary to his former secretary, grapple with the mechanics of change and his family prepare to vace an uncertain future, the chancellor himself considers his legacy amid visits from journalists, an infatuated student and his arch-rival and possible successor, Patrick Klein. With echoes of both King Lear and The Cherry Orchard, Vaclav Havel's Leaving addresses the themes of change, dispossession and the transfer of power from one generation to the next. The play received its English-language world premiere at the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, in September 2008. Leaving is Vaclav Havel's first play since he was propelled to political office in 1989.
