Hotel Fatigue – Notes from Research

14. 7. 2026  Finding Storyland • Projects

Are you interested in the details of the history and circumstances surrounding the creation of the Blanice hostel, which will become the venue for this year’s site-specific project Hotel Fatigue? We have something for you!

Behind every major project of the Continuo Theatre are months of searching, researching, discovering history and collecting stories. It is no different for the upcoming immersive production Hotel Fatigue, which will revive the former Blanice hostel in Týn nad Vltavou.

We find the circumstances of the creation of Blanice and its stories so interesting and complex that we decided to share them with you. The Temelín Nuclear Power Plant is not just four cooling towers visible from afar. Its construction caused a series of transformations that significantly affected the character of the surroundings and many human fates.

In the video Hotel Fatigue – Notes from Research, we will guide you through places where disappeared villages used to stand, from which people had to move out. We will head to the Hlinky housing estate in Týn nad Vltavou and to the Blanice complex itself, which once accommodated thousands of workers, served as a hotel, an evacuation center during floods, and as a temporary shelter for Ukrainian refugees.

We perform the production Hotel Fatigue directly on the premises of Blanice from July 28 to August 12.

Come and experience the stories written into the walls of this place for yourself!
