For a typically Czech theatrical experience, you can choose from three distinctive performance genres, all of which are great for visitors as they are language-free and held in Prague’s city centre. Visually spectacular ‘black light theatre‘ stories are told using elements of mime, modern dance, ballet, animated film, and acting or puppetry bathed in light on a dark background. Marionette theatre offers wonderful puppet performances of pieces ranging from Mozart’s famous Don Giovanni to the Beatles’ Yellow Submarine. Laterna Magika, situated next to the National Theatre, is a mix of film, visual effects, sound and ballet. Always evolving, the themes are fresh and exciting, and performances are well worth the price.

Did you know? Prague theatre productions are mostly visual, so they are suitable for children of all nationalities and ages. Even very young children should enjoy the puppets, the lights and sounds and the dancing.
