NATIONAL THEATRE

The cultural endeavours of the period of the Czech national revival culminated in the battle for an independent theatre building. After many difficulties had been overcome and funds raised throughout the country, such a building was eventually constructed in the neo-Renaissance style, and opened in 1883. Typical of the National Theatre is the fact that, since its opening, it has staged productions in all genres - opera, drama and ballet. Opera: The death of Hippodamy - Zdenek Fibich, Tosca and La Boheme - Giacomo Puccini, Libuse and The Bartered Bride - Bedrich Smetana. Ballet: Picovaya Dama - Pyotr Ilyich Tschaikovsky, Giselle von Adam.
