Summary/Abstract: This paper considers the influence of different cultures on the culture of one country, influencing the historical consciousness of a small nation and its identity within a larger state union or independent state. This fact is positively reflected in the performing arts. Three original projects bring the perspective of the creators closer to the common past with Czech and Hungarian culture. The screenplays are based on historical research and oral history: a work inspired by the form of the immersion theatre Kosmopol (2019), a puppet show Zbojník a Gasparko (2023) and the play Palárik (a to jeho teátro) goes back to the 19th century. Suchoň‘s opera Svätopluk (2023) presents the drama of a ruler in the period of Great Moravia, which also tells the story of the Slovak nation.
