Performer: Lukáš Kozubík

A vintage opera at the National Theatre offers charming adventures for children and musical sophistication for adults.

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.

The director drains the life out of an impassioned opera with a staging devoid of authenticity and ideas.

The challenges of Cherubini’s version of the Greek tragedy prove too much for the National Theatre to overcome.

Directors Martin Kukučka and Lukáš Trpišovský, who work together as SKUTR, take on Dvořák’s Rusalka with a surfeit of ideas.
