The National Theatre belongs to the most important Czech cultural institutions, with a rich artistic tradition, which helped to preserve and develop the most important features of the nation–the Czech language and a sense for a Czech musical and dramatic way of thinking.
Today the National Theatre consists of three artistic ensembles: opera, ballet and drama. They alternate in their performances in the historic building of the National Theatre, in the Theatre of the Estates and in the Kolowrat Theatre.

Beautiful building and great performance. Stage technique is not the most modern but was used very efficiently to create an enjoyable opera experience. Singers and orchestra performed well. Tickets are quite affordable.
