Neue Kritikenmehr...
Musically excellent Bartered Bride in Prague marred by meta production
Smetana in Prague is never likely to be less than a delight, and the National Theatre assembles a fine cast for a revival of Alice Nellis' production of his greatest opera.
In Prague, a high-minded new Rheingold never gets off the ground
Sláva Daubnerová's contemporary treatment of the Ring opener at the Prague National Theatre is socially ambitious but artistically disappointing.
Calixto Bieito’s Idomeneo runs out of time in Prague
At the Prague State Opera, Calixto Brieito relocates Mozart's opera seria to modern times, with disastrous results.
A bleak Jenůfa from Calixto Bieito
The director drains the life out of an impassioned opera with a staging devoid of authenticity and ideas.
An all-star Jenůfa falls short in Prague
Superb singing and brilliant work in the pit can't quite rescue Jiří Nekvasil's overambitious production.
At Prague’s National Theatre, a witty, well-kept Smetana Secret
Aided by spirited singers and enthusiastic musicians, director Ondřej Havelka brings an imaginative, ironic touch to a lesser-known Smetana opera.
