Traditional performances |
Narodni trida 2 Prague 11000 Czech Republic +420 2 2490 1377 http://www.narodni-divadlo.cz |
This imposing neo-Renaissance building embodies Bohemia's rich musical and operatic tradition. It is the best place to see Czech opera favourites by Dvorak, Smetana and Janacek; there are usually four or five Czech operas in the repertoire during any given season. The National also specializes in rather conservative, solidly-sung productions of Italian opera. German works by Strauss and Wagner are also popular. The orchestra is always reliable, with occasional flashes of brilliance. Advance tickets go on sale one month prior to performance. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Within the Municipal House building |
Republic Square (Námestí Republiky) 5 Municipal House Prague 11121 Czech Republic +420 2 2200 2101 (Municipal House) http://www.obecni-dum.cz/ |
Located in the Municipal House building, where several events of social, political, and cultural relevance are held each year, Smetana Hall is over a hundred years old, but is far from lacking in amenities. It underwent some major renovations between 1995 and 2000, and offers a total seating capacity of 1100, air-conditioning, and disabled access among other facilities. Works of the famous 20th century Czech artist Alfons Mucha (among others) adorn the interior. Review © 2007, Wcities |
