During Barum Czech Rally Zlín, the theatre company has prepared thematic play about the life of Colin McRae, who is well known to all rally fans because of his tenacity, wonderful achievements and unfortunate accidents which resulted from occasionally wanting too much. 'The play itself was inspired by the milestones of Colin McRae's life. It projects his success and losses while racing his car and his life,' Patrik Francl said, the author and director of the play.

The play is one hour long and stars Jakub Janíček and Juli Tris Camhal. All the fans can live through Colin McRae's spectacular life total of four times during Barum rally.
