Czech theater and film premieres

Overview

The Czech performing arts scene is introducing several new productions across various stages. In late October 2026, Dejvické divadlo premiered ‘Varování’ (Warning), a play based on unperformed fragments of a work by former President Václav Havel. Other recent activities included a children’s detective play at Těšínské divadlo’s Bajka stage and the development of a mountain comedy film titled ‘Pod Sněžkou’.

By early November 2026, Prague theaters announced further upcoming works. Notable among these is a modern reimagining of Bertolt Brecht’s Baal at Divadlo Komedie, which features a contemporary rap star protagonist. Other scheduled productions include Ivan Buraj’s Víkend at Divadlo v Dlouhé, a 17th-century comedy regarding the tulip bulb bubble at the National Theatre, and a production of Aristophanes’ Lysistrata at Studio Hrdinů.
