Like other musicians, Radůza had to cancel planned concerts twice this year. It is not clear when and with what restrictions he will be able to return to the podium. “In my life, children come first and music is my basic means of expression. It is not said anywhere that I will no longer make a living from music, but I want to be prepared for the situation if it happens, “says the singer.
Learn something that would come in handy anyway
This is not the first time he has addressed career constraints. “When I lost my voice or was sick, I thought it would be nice to learn something new that would suit me anyway,” he says.
She has now registered with the employment office. He does not apply for unemployment benefits, but wants to take advantage of the offer of retraining courses. “I would like to take a carpenter’s course, but since I’ve been dealing with tendonitis for half a year, I thought I would try to retrain as a website builder,” she revealed.
And if that doesn’t work out, he’ll start looking for a job in gardening. “I also want to extend my driving license because I would enjoy riding the bus,” he plans with a slight exaggeration. She is currently completing a book, is writing a theme for a film script, and in the spring she learned to play the banjo in quarantine.
Stage space for packages or mopping
Jiří Bláha, the artistic director of the Pluto Theater in Pilsen, was also forced to leave the artistic industry. “I expected it to come again in the fall, but not so soon. The organizers are calling and I am canceling one event after another, “Bláha, who is also a moderator and actor, describes his situation. He was still on the stage at the end of the summer, now he is delivering packages.

The current job does not fill him very well, but he did not want to stay at home. Operetta singer Jitka Kubištová is in a similar situation. “I have three brigades to use it all. I do an online store, a nurse in the surgery and I still go to wipe, “he lists alternative sources of his livelihood.
The continuation of the Covid – Culture program should help artists working as self – employed. They can receive sixty thousand crowns in one go. “I will ask. Culture will have a much longer range, things are planned for the long term, people have to buy tickets, “believes Bláha. They don’t believe much that they will return to work in culture this year.
