The study focuses on two plays of Tomáš Dianiška. Title „Trans, Points, Seconds“ was inspired by the scandalous fate of a Czech athlete Zdena Koubková, who was in fact a man, „The Magnificent 294“ is a documentary fiction based on a real event – the assassination of Reichsprotektor Heydrich. Dianiška perceives historical themes with controversial optics. His texts are full of black humour and irony, as well as frequent use of pop culture references.
