ABOUT THE SUBSCRIPTION
If you're a fan of grand, spectacular ballets that enchant the whole family, then an exclusive subscription with their selection will certainly not disappoint you. The titles included are Coppélia, Bíla Voda, Oresteia, and Tajemství.
If you're a fan of grand, spectacular ballets that enchant the whole family, then Coppélia, choreographed by Ronald Hynd based on Marius Petipa's original, will be a true celebration for you. The fate of Swanilda and her fiancé Franz is intervened by Doctor Coppélius and his beautiful doll Coppélia, which looks lifelike.
The mysterious ballet based on the stories of E. T. A. Hoffmann will be followed by the stage adaptation of Kateřina Tučková's bestseller Bíla Voda, directed by Michal Vajdička. The playwright Daniel Majling focuses on finding answers to questions such as whether Sister Evarista or those opposing her are the greater fanatics.
We will also bring the demons of the past, which everyone must deal with on their own, to life in Robert Icke's Oresteia. This British playwright sees Aeschylus's trilogy as a post-war world full of strong men and even stronger women. In this world, amidst accusations and furies, there is also room for forgiveness and many new beginnings and hopes.
Although we celebrate Smetana's work throughout the year 2024 due to the celebrations of the 200th anniversary of his birth, the opera Tajemství will delight you in the following year as well. Director Ondřej Havelka excels in his sense for musical theatre and gentle humor. He will easily show you what the greatest treasure and mystery of life truly are.
