The Dung Beetle is running behind schedule, the Parasite is dozing off, and Mrs. Larva is more focused on her knitting than on following the director’s guidance. Evidently, this amateur theater troupe has a significant journey ahead before they can successfully stage their adaptation of The Insect Play, a renowned satirical piece from 1922 by Karel and Josef Čapek, which portrays insects exhibiting distinctly human characteristics such as greed, self-centeredness, and envy.
