 After being named Talent of the Year at the 2006 Alfréd Radok Awards, she won the Alfréd Radok Award for Best Actress in 2010 for her role of "Alžběta" in the Ödön von Horváth play "Víra, láska, naděje" (German: "Glaube, Liebe, Hoffnung" ) at the Divadlo Komedie in Prague.

Tales from the Vienna Woods (1931) is the most famous play by Austro-Hungarian writer Ödön von Horváth (1901–1938).
 It was premièred in Berlin in 1931 and has been filmed several times.
 Before the première, the German writer and playwright, Carl Zuckmayer nominated the play for the Kleist Prize, which it won, the most significant literary award of the Weimar Republic.
 The play's title is a reference to the waltz, Tales from the Vienna Woods by Johann Strauss II.
 Horvarth's play premièred at the Deutsches Theatre, Berlin.
 Written in the late 1920s during the period of catastrophic unemployment and the Great Depression, the play is a key work of modern drama, described by Erich Kaestner as "a Viennese folk play accompanied by Viennese folk songs".
 It is a bitter satire about the mendacity and brutality of the petite-bourgeoisie, named ironically after the forested highlands near the Austrian capital that are so idealised in the waltz.
 In the play, Viennese 'Gemütlichkeit' or 'coziness' becomes a hollow phrase; the tragic, brutal story of the sweet girl Marianne and the deeply conventional butcher Oskar reflects the hardships and anxieties of the late 1920s during the global economic crisis.
Don Juan Comes Back From The War (German: "Don Juan kommt aus dem Krieg") is a 1936 play by Ödön von Horvath.

 It was only premiered in 1952.

Russian literature refers to the literature of Russia and its émigrés and to the Russian-language literature of several independent nations once a part of what was historically Rus', the Russian Empire or the Soviet Union.
 The roots of Russian literature can be traced to the Middle Ages, when epics and chronicles in Old Russian were composed.
 By the Age of Enlightenment, literature had grown in importance, and from the early 1830s, Russian literature underwent an astounding golden age in poetry, prose and drama.
 Romanticism permitted a flowering of poetic talent: Vasily Zhukovsky and later his protégé Alexander Pushkin came to the fore.
 Prose was flourishing as well.
 The first great Russian novelist was Nikolai Gogol.
 Then came Ivan Turgenev, who mastered both short stories and novels.
 Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoyevsky soon became internationally renowned.
 In the second half of the century Anton Chekhov excelled in short stories and became a leading dramatist.
 The beginning of the 20th century ranks as the Silver Age of Russian poetry.
 The poets most often associated with the "Silver Age" are Konstantin Balmont, Valery Bryusov, Alexander Blok, Anna Akhmatova, Nikolay Gumilyov, Osip Mandelstam, Sergei Yesenin, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Marina Tsvetaeva and Boris Pasternak.
 This era produced some first-rate novelists and short-story writers, such as Aleksandr Kuprin, Nobel Prize winner Ivan Bunin, Leonid Andreyev, Fyodor Sologub, Aleksey Remizov, Yevgeny Zamyatin, Dmitry Merezhkovsky and Andrei Bely.
