For the <em>Marathon music Brno <\/em>(<em>Maraton hudby Brno)<\/em> festival, she is the creative force behind the <em>Streetless Busking (Bezuli\u010dn\u00ed busking)<\/em> concept, which moves private spaces (rooms) into the public sphere of the city. Since the early years\u2014when she invited musicians to perform in unexpected places like balconies, cars, underground tunnels, and escalators\u2014she has evolved the project into the &#8220;apartment concert&#8221; phenomenon (starting in 2019). Her rooms (including a medical clinic during the covid pandemic or a video rental store) sensitively respond to current social themes and anniversaries. In 2025, during the festival\u2019s 10th anniversary, she pushed the project even further: a tramper&#8217;s log cabin with an open bonfire was built on <em>Freedom Square (N\u00e1m\u011bst\u00ed Svobody<\/em>). For the first time, the project allowed the public to not only sing together by the fire in the city center but also to legally spend the night in an open-air &#8220;room,&#8221; completing her vision of fully connecting private and public life. For this kind of work, Kate\u0159ina is a recipient of many prestigious awards, including the most famous one Jind\u0159ich Chalupeck\u00fd Award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:50px\"><strong>David Ondra&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Chief Production Officer &#038; Dramaturge<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David is Kate\u0159ina \u0160ed\u00e1\u2019s lead producer and has worked on her projects since 2011.
